European Digital Credentials for Learning (EDC) with Velocert

Velocert integrates with the European Digital Credentials for Learning (EDC), a secure and multilingual format for digitally sealed credentials.
With Velocert, you can issue EDC-compliant credentials directly to a learner’s digital wallet, such as the My Library section in Europass.
Learners can store their credentials securely, create an online portfolio, and share them with employers or educational institutions.
When shared, each credential’s authenticity and validity are instantly verified, ensuring trust.

What are European Digital Credentials?

European Digital Credentials for Learning are original digital versions of traditional documents, such as diplomas or certificates. Unlike scanned copies, digital credentials are tamper-proof, easy to verify, and machine-readable. They can be securely stored in online wallets and shared instantly with third parties, such as employers.

Why use Velocert for EDCs?

Trust and Verification

Each Velocert-issued credential is electronically sealed. This ensures authenticity, detects tampering, and verifies the issuer’s identity in line with the eIDAS regulation.

Detailed information

Digital credentials can showcase learning achievements, outcomes, and skills. They can link to resources like the ESCO skills taxonomy, making them more valuable than traditional certificates.

Security

Credentials are sealed using trusted electronic seals from EU-certified providers. These seals safeguard the document’s integrity and protect against fraud.

Recognition across borders

Credentials issued through Velocert comply with European standards like the European Learning Model (ELM) and international W3C standards, ensuring they are recognised across the EU.

Learner data ownership

Learners have complete control of their credentials. They can decide how and when to share them, using secure links or exporting as PDFs.
