Announcing a new partnership between Qualification Check and Yoti.
London, 3rd April 2023
At the forefront of personal data verification, we are delighted to announce a partnership between Qualification Check, leader in the verification of qualifications and licences, and digital identity company, Yoti.
Founded in 2014, Yoti provides a free, reusable Digital ID that gives people an instant way to prove their identity, with no need to show ID documents or share an excessive amount of personal data. Last year, Yoti and their partner the Post Office, became the first certified Identity Service Provider (IDSP) for digital right to work checks – streamlining and speeding up the employee vetting process.
Now the partnership with Qualification Check addresses the need of individuals who are applying for work or higher education, to prove their academic and professional qualifications. Bringing Digital ID together with verified qualifications and professional licences will accelerate the process and improve a candidate’s chance of securing employment.
For universities and institutions, it will enable admissions teams to confirm all necessary applicant details together, before extending offers to study.
For prospective employers, it will allow human resource departments to confirm identity, qualifications, professional licences and the right to work via a single platform, for all UK & Irish citizens.
Ed Hall, Qualification Check CEO, said “The combination of Yoti’s strength in verifying personal ID and Qualification Check’s global coverage of academic and professional awards, makes this a natural partnership, offering a single secure platform for personal identity, higher education and career progression.”
Robin Tombs, Yoti CEO, said, “We’re thrilled to join forces with Qualification Check and help people safely share verified qualification credentials, as well as identity details, with ease, simplicity and speed. We’re already transforming the way people complete right to work checks, so this partnership will help us bring the power of digital identity to even more people.”
