Presentation Description (for publishing in the conference program)
In the last two decades, the profession of international credential evaluation, like the rest of the world, has experienced a revolution in how documents are stored and retrieved. We have transitioned from a paper-based environment to a digital world in less than a generation. During this session, we perform a global environmental scan of the field, exploring our collective needs in terms of a communal credentials archive against such issues as the GDPR. Participants engage in dialogue to help them design a plan to support the preservation and professional use of international educational credentials.
