CRED-LAB launched: advancing trusted digital micro-credentials

We are pleased to announce the launch of CRED-LAB, a project funded under the RESTART 2016–2020 Programmes of the Research and Innovation Foundation (RIF).

CRED-LAB focuses on the development of a tokenised digital credentialing platform for micro-certifications, enabling organisations to issue credentials that can be verified instantly through secure, signed links.

The project addresses a critical gap in the education and training ecosystem: the need for fast, reliable, and low-friction verification of skills and achievements. By simplifying both issuance and verification, CRED-LAB aims to support training providers, employers, and learners in building trust in digital credentials.

During the project, we will design and validate a practical issuance-to-verification workflow, including credential status control and revocation mechanisms, while assessing key use cases and market opportunities.

Follow our journey as we develop and validate new approaches to digital credentialing.
