The DCC develops software and tools that make it easy for institutions to issue W3C Verifiable Credentials and 1EdTech Consortium Open Badges 3.0. And with good reason! We believe these standards offer many advantages to learners, issuers, and verifiers. We are explaining their benefits and how they work in a multi-part blog series, the first of which is now live! Check out Part 1: The Trust Model of Open Badges on our blog. https://lnkd.in/eQVxTccN

? Coffee in one hand, ?? microphone in the other. This week, I spoke at Higher Education Web Professionals Association (HighEdWeb) (soon to be Digital Collegium) about open-source digital credentials software built and implemented as part of Georgia Institute of Technology's collaboration with the Digital Credentials Consortium. I enjoyed the opportunity to proselytize our open-source work on bringing portable, verifiable digital academic credentials to higher education, and the exciting opportunities we have ahead for collaboration.

Verifiable credentials let employers and schools automatically confirm applicants' experience — with a critical layer of proof. This process ensures: 1. The credentials were digitally signed by the issuer 2. The data hasn’t changed since it was signed Explore Digital Credentials Consortium's insights on the latest standards for learning and employment records: https://bit.ly/3XCXR1h #Credentials #VerifiableCredentials #DigitalCredentials #AcademicCredentials #Credentialing #OpenBadges #OBv3 #LearningAndEmploymentRecords #LERS #Certification #Jobs #Hiring #ProfessionalDevelopment #OnlineLearning #OnlineEducation #Education #HigherEducation #JobTraining #IssuerRegistry
