How does a Skills Passport work?
A Skills Passport is an individuals on-line record of skills, qualifications and achievements which can be accessed by authorised organisations such as training providers and employers for the purpose of viewing and maintaining skills records. A person can obtain their skills passport either by going online to the skills passport web site or it can be issued to them by their employer, training provider, college, recruitment agent or any other organisation who is a registered verifier. An individuals skills passport can be maintained and accessed by the individuals supporting organizations such as their employer or training provider. Each individual owns and controls access to their skills passport and what is displayed on it regardless of whether their paid for their own skills passport or it was issued to them by their employer or other organization.
