  • The registry will include all kinds of credentials – from educational degrees and certificates to industry certifications, occupational licenses, and micro-credentials.
  • will develop a Credential Directory app, which will allow registry users to access the websites of participating credential issuers, build customized directories of credentials based on their own criteria, and publish the results.
  • The goals are transparency and clarity, and to help align credentials with the needs of students, job seekers, workers and employers.
