Dear Felix,

 

I refer to your request of 28 July 2025. The University’s response
follows.

 

“…is the University looking at issuing digital ID credential for
qualifications, such as under the Digital Identity Services Trust
Framework, or under some other framework.”

 

I am advised that, although the University currently issues digital badges
for micro-credentials and some short courses,  we do not have any current
plans to issue digital ID credentials for our qualifications. 

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Landon Watt
