Learner verification for online continuing education
Continuing education providers and professional organisations need to know who completed their online learning. Asgard verifies learner identity and monitors course participation, linking the training record to the enrolled professional rather than just an account.
A credit record is not proof of participation
A completion timestamp shows that an account reached the end of a course. It does not establish who participated. Shared logins, delegated completions and unattended sessions can leave a gap between the professional named in the record and the person who completed the learning.
For online continuing education, that gap can carry forward into renewal records and future training. Learner verification and course monitoring provide evidence of identity and participation at the time the learning takes place.
Identity verification and course monitoring
Asgard establishes learner identity and confirms participation during online training. Course participation signals prompt learners back on track when session conditions change. Linked verification events, access history and participation records help providers document who completed the learning.
Asgard does not proctor examinations, assessments or quizzes. It does not award continuing education credits, accredit training providers or determine whether learning satisfies a professional body's renewal requirements.
Different professions, different credit requirements
Continuing education is an umbrella term. Continuing education units (CEUs), continuing professional development (CPD), continuing professional education (CPE) and other credit or hour systems are not interchangeable. Their definitions and acceptance requirements depend on the relevant profession, jurisdiction and awarding or licensing organisation.
- Asgard's role is to document learner identity and participation during online training. The provider and relevant organisation determine how that learning is recognised.
