What are credentials in SafetyCulture?

The Credentials feature in SafetyCulture simplifies and streamlines the management of your workforce's qualifications. Whether it's certifications or external qualifications, like driver's licenses and first aid courses, our platform offers a single, organized repository for them all.

You can manage your own credentials or those of your workforce by categorizing them into different credential types. You can add new versions of credentials that are about to expire, view their approval status, and review their history. You can also track each version's activity, which logs the changes made on the issue date, expiration date, and media attachments.

Pairing with Training in SafetyCulture, Credentials ensures your teams have complete compliance. For example, a forklift operator can take a site induction course and have a forklift license as a credential for seamless on-site operations.

No matter the size of your workforce, you can be confident that your teams are qualified to do their work by organizing their credentials under different types.

For each credential you upload, you can also set expiration dates to identify when a user's credential is close to or has expired.

We know many credentials expire and need to be renewed over time. Credential history allows you to keep a record of each version of a credential and securely retain associated media files so you have a complete history for compliance purposes.

If you need to track changes made to each credential version over time, you can use version activity to view who has made changes to your credential on a specific date and time.

As users submit their credentials, administrators can use approvals to validate their workforce credentials for compliance, safety, and operational efficiency. This ensures that access to sites and specific roles is granted only to individuals with verified and accurate credentials.
