Help/roadmap for publishing DC 2025

Hello,

my organization issues certificates to students. Certificates are (or will be) in the form of PDF's embedding JSON digital credentials. If a student has an account on Europass, we would like to publish such certificates on his account ("wallet" is the right word?). Can somebody explain to us the roadmap for achieving this goal? e.g. How can we accredit as issuers? Which API should we use for the upload? Is an e-seal required, or would a digital signature be enough? Is there any documentation?

Sorry for this trivial question, but the documentation I found [1] is quite dispersive.

Thank you.

Hello Crystal,

Thank you for your message. You can find a lot of information here: How to issue European Digital Credentials for Learning | Europass

You also have a step by step video on how to create a document: Additional Materials | Futurium

You will indeed need an electronic seal (type advanced or qualified). You can send the credentials to the students via email or via a direct deposit to their Europass wallets. You can also opt for a deposit in a temporary Europass wallet that the students can claim (providing that your data protection rules allow for this). 

For the acquisition of the electronic seal, there is some guidance in the "how to issue" page linked above.

Do not hesitate if you have further questions,

Best regards,
Céline
