Cert Badge Material

Now, I have zero experience in these things. But it seems to my untrained eye that there should be more space for multiple certifications on the same card. That way, one person won't have to carry around a dozen cards.

So much depends on your budget. I would recommend white "credit card stock", either directly printed or bearing "name badge" labels. I fully concur that specific certifications should be modular on a single badge. You should consider stick-on paper/plastic labels, jewels (color coded), and custom brass images with pin backs. Your answer will probably like somewhere along this spectrum. Another possibility is to hang certifications below the name tag proper, rather like military ribbons.

I was thinking something like heavy cardstock would work, although they would have to reprint them fairly often. That would make it less cost if kids lose them, however, especially if you have to outsource printing on plastic.
Photo paper might last a bit longer, although I'm not sure on that.
Some companies do plastic card printing, online. Starting with that and using cardstock replacements in cases of losing them could be a good idea.
