Embracing Digital Credentials

Lee Grierson

I think the IET should be leading the pack and issuing digital credentials for membership levels. Although the support for City & Guilds is a start as well as the link via the IET academy, they should set the example for the PEI's and influence EngC in issuing credentials for professional registrations. APM are an organisation setting the standards here.

Views and Thoughts appreciated especially from the IET to support progressive recognition in this digital age.

    Hi all

    Thanks for the great discussion here - and also for raising it with us as a priority. My team have Digital Badges on our list to look into (particularly the feasibility via. one of the established platforms / methods) - but we will move it up the list due to the keen interest shown by the group here. 

    All the best and thanks for the useful discussion, Simon

       that is great news,

    I'm really glad the IET seems to be at the forefront on this compared to the other PEI's and are taking into account member's views via this forum to move its priority.

    Any help you need with beta testing or piloting or road-testing on social media, please reach out to this thread as I and others here will be more than happy to support that, showcasing the impact that digital credentials has in terms of enhanced visibility for the IET and to demonstrate the way verified credentials add value to one's profile as well as the confidentiality improvements that can be realised.

       sorry I have not responded sooner to your points I have been quite tided up recently and I want to respond to them in a structured way so bear with me I will get onto it soon..
