Ability to add high-level credential type or tier labels on the credential page and Spotlight Directory

A customer building out a new credential strategy would like to display/tag a high-level classification label (e.g. "Certification," "Advanced," "Foundational") on the credential page.
They're structuring their program into four tiers:
Tier 1: Certification (Certified)
Tier 2: Skills (Demonstrated)
Tier 3: Knowledge (Trained)
Tier 4: Engagement
They'd like each issued credential to visibly display its tier, ideally as a styled label near the top of the credential page (not buried in the skills section or a custom attribute list further down).
Today, Skills Frameworks and Custom Attributes don't cover this use case since they're skill-level or attribute-list based rather than a prominent type/tier tag. A configurable "credential type" or "level" label that issuers can define and apply per group, and that renders prominently on the credential page, would help programs like this align their badge structure with recognized industry patterns.
They also mentioned wanting this to be a searchable option in the Spotlight Directory as well.
