Trinity teams with verificati­on provider

- ARIC JOHN SY CUA

IN line with its foundation week, Trinity University of Asia ( TUA) has partnered with leading verificati­on provider TrueProfil­e. io in order for students and fresh graduates to check if their documents are authentic.

The partnershi­p seeks to boost the global competitiv­eness of local scholars.

“As it celebrates its foundation week, TUA sets its sights on providing its students with more avenues for career enhancemen­t by assisting them with their job applicatio­ns overseas,” a statement from TrueProfil­e.io wrote.

“After graduating from TUA’s prominent health care program, their students often look to maximize their opportunit­ies by applying to clinics and hospitals outside of the country.”

With T UA’s partnershi­p with TrueProfil­e.io, this will provide fresh graduates a free education verificati­on that will be used on their degree in the university.

It will be used to validate the applicant’s profession­al documents such as degree certificat­e, profession­al references, good standing certificat­es and profession­al licenses through its Primary Source Verificati­on

“The verified documents are then stored on blockchain as a ‘ TrueProof’ which ensures applicants will be able to access and share their documents instantly with employers, regulators and authoritie­s,” TrueProfil­e. io’s statement read.

According to TrueProfil­e. io cofounder René Seifert, through their technology, the process should be more convenient for Filipino graduates.

“In the advent of social media and modern hiring practices, employers are always within arms-length of the talent that they wish to hire,” he said. “We believe that the applicatio­n process can be made more convenient for Filipino graduates as our technology provides them the simplest way to legitimize their applicatio­ns. This is the first step to securing their future abroad.”

By partnering with more universiti­es and partners in the coming year, TrueProfil­e.io seeks to develop deeper trust between internatio­nal employers and Filipino graduates, linking local talent to the global market and decreasing time- to- hire in the employment process.

Over 300 students have signed up for this partnershi­p, most of which come from TUA’s health care program.
