In order to appraise the value of an educational occupational credential it is useful to know which organizations recognize it. This may involve some aspects of quality assurance on the part of the organization recognizing the credential, or it may simply indicate that the credential is acceptable to that organization.

Discussion: EOCred: recognition of credential thread from April and May 2018.

Proposal

Create a new property of EducationalOccupationalCredential called recognizedBy

Name: recognizedBy

Definition: An organization that acknowledges the validity, value or utility of a credential. Note: recognition may include a process of quality assurance or accreditation.

Expected Range: Organization

Note: If there is sufficient demand, it is possible that in the future a sub-property of recognizedBy could be created for accreditation.
