Trusted issuers

Make trusted achievements portable.

Issue once. The person keeps it, maintains it and shares it — with your identity, scope and dates attached.

The trusted issuer model

  • A trusted organisation has a verified issuer profile.
  • It can issue a credential, confirm a claim or publish an update.
  • Each credential carries issuer identity, date, reference, verification status and expiry or renewal data where applicable.
  • Holders see and control their record.
  • Verifiers see only the information deliberately shared with them.
  • Issuer permissions and administrative roles are tightly managed.
