Welcome to "Micro-credentials in a Minute," produced by Micro-credential Multiverse.

In this episode, micro-credential and digital badge experts Rob Bajor and Allison Fromm (Proofspace.id) share their insights and discuss how Verifiable Credentials (VCs) can reduce costs for recruiters. Allison explains that anyone can make any claim they want about themselves online, which creates a verification process that costs time and money for recruiters. However, if candidates present their skills and experiences in the form of a verifiable credential, recruiters can easily and automatically check the accuracy of that information. Sharing data via VCs can save money, speed up the process, and create a better experience for everyone involved. Rob adds that verifying information online is crucial for building trust; without it, the principle of trust is undermined.

Join Rob and Allison to learn more about the power of VCs in reducing costs for recruiters and building trust in the digital world.
