View Credentials

This functionality is available in both English and French. Please refer to French Translations page for the French text.

The Credentials page allows users to view a list of credentials for a student.

The list of credentials displayed includes credentials meeting this criteria:

  1. The active awarded credential number for a student and credential type.
  2. Any achieved at least one credential requirement set for a credential, but has not been awarded the credential for the student.
    1. Note: This could mean that the credential was never awarded OR the credential number was awarded, but then deleted.
  3. Any in progress credentials for the student (i.e. student has met all the trigger requirements for one of the requirement set for the Credential).

Deleted credential numbers are not visible to the public or admin users via the myPass screens.

  • Where a student has Achieved a credential and the most recent awarded version has been deleted, the record is returned as achieved. No credential number or awarding information is reflected.
  • Where a student is In Progress towards a credential and the most recent awarded version has been deleted, the record is returned as In Progress. No credential number or awarding information is reflected.

The Credentials master-grid allows users to select a credential to view the details for that credential on the Credential Details panel (see the View Credential Details (myPass) section for more information)

For more information on the various statuses of the credentials that will display on the myPass Credential screens in the various scenarios, please refer to the PASI Credential Status Overview document.
