A verified credential in a digital wallet is a record of qualifications or personal data validated by trusted sources using encryption to increase credential security and make your credentials more tamper and fraud resistant.

For today, it will not replace the verification search. However, as the number of customers grows in adopting digital wallets and verified credentials, the need for the directory may become redundant. Instead, anyone who wants to verify your credentials can do so by scanning your digital credential on your mobile phone, or by visiting a web page that will make a real-time check of your credential and its status.
Today, you will keep sending the necessary documents just as you always do.

This program is meant to replace hard copy credentials. The program goal is to issue every BCRSP member a wallet and their earned verified credentials.

The BCRSP digital wallet is like your personal vault for storing BCRSP Verified Credentials. It keeps these important documents secure, accessible and under your control. The same as today, as the issuer of the Verified Credential, BCRSP retains the ability to suspend or revoke any credential it issues. While no technology is perfectly secure, we believe this technology offers a level of tamper and fraud resistance unlike any other before it. Certainly, much more than today’s paper-based cards and certificates.
