Do join us at our third Digital Credentials Regulars get-together at our virtual pub “The Self-Sovereign” on December 15th from 5:00-6:00 p.m. CET.

Paul den Hertog  will be spotlighting the Netherlands and current developments in the field of digital credentials. The Dutch Acceleration Plan, and a pilot on micro-credentialing in Dutch HE driven by central databases and corresponding networks of educational institutions have made great advances in the field. Which challenges have been met or are yet to come and which findings can be transferred to the situation in other countries?

Paul den Hertog has worked for over 20 years at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences as an innovator and policy advisor. In these roles he was responsible for managing various innovation projects such as a campus wide web lecture service, ePortfolio and DLE-vision, -procurement and -implementation. Over the last three years Paul has worked as a policy advisor for the Board, and as captain of the Dutch Acceleration Plan, working on flexible education and lifelong learning. Recently Paul accepted a new role as advisor at SURF, the national cooperation for technology in public HE.

The event will take place in English. It will also be possible to have individual conversations in smaller groups at the bar or piano lounge.
