Pain

Gaps in certification processes, a need to implement a licensing process in organizations, manual and chaotic certification management operations, etc. The customer sought to master workforce compliance by facilitating certificate tracking, verification, and management.

Solution

The flexible solution allows you to process certificates faster and more efficiently in one unified system, making the certification process more adaptable.

Challenge

Certification, license, assessment, or compliance management are processes with a bunch of pitfalls. The representatives of certification boards, government institutions, or companies where regular certifications have become an established practice so far face lots of organizational and verification challenges.

To name a few, there are many errors in data in case of manual operations, hours spent on answering the same questions of those who are being certified, missing or insufficient information, tons of documentation for processing, and many other questions to solve, which makes the whole certification procedure tiring and time-consuming.

Being well aware of all the above-mentioned issues, our customer came up with the idea of building a versatile and approachable online platform covering all certification management tasks. Initially targeted at healthcare certifications, the solution we provided was soon extended to other industries as well. Emerline was offered the role of a project development team.

Solution Description

This is a comprehensive cloud-based software solution that enables companies to track, verify, and manage all employees' credentials in one place. The solution also can help you reduce risks by minimizing noncompliance issues such as regulatory fines and customer lawsuits and improve efficiency by reducing the time and cost required to manage workforce compliance.

With this solution, companies can:

  • Keep employee licenses and certifications current and clean.
  • Track credential renewals and expirations to avoid missed deadlines.
  • Reduce the processing times for application review.
  • Verify credential status between renewals, to catch suspended or revoked credentials.
  • Manage credential applications and renewals to help employees complete them accurately and on time.
