Professional status, verified in context.
Professional · Regulatory · Period-aware
Professional credentials use a registry-first model: professional body, credential class, registration number, issue/expiry, status, jurisdiction and official verification route are kept as separate evidence.
Purpose-built verification capabilities.
Each capability is a visible part of the verification workflow—not a hidden AI score.
Regulator identity
Professional body, jurisdiction and credential class are resolved before verification.
Registration lookup
Registration/licence number, issue date, expiry date and status where official sources expose them.
Period-aware validity
A current suspension or expiry does not rewrite historical validity for an earlier employment or academic period.
Official verification routes
Adapters are introduced only where a lawful/public or partner-authorized verification path exists.
Credential integrity
Document/QR/signature integrity can support the source status but is not treated as a substitute for regulator evidence.
Case integration
Professional status becomes one evidence dimension in the same applicant case graph.
Professional verification is not a generic certificate check.
The correct regulator, jurisdiction and effective dates matter. DCS Bonafide keeps current status, historical status and credential integrity separate so customers can see what the evidence actually proves.
- Expired, suspended, inactive and unknown are different states
- Jurisdiction is part of the credential model
- Professional source availability is assessed before automation is enabled
- DCS Bonafide provides verification evidence; the customer retains the hiring/licensing decision
From input to defensible evidence.
Bonafide follows the strongest available verification route and resumes only the affected lane when new evidence arrives.
One evidence model. Role-specific operations.
The same underlying case can be viewed differently by institutions, employers, reviewers, operations and candidates.
Employers
Validate regulated professional credentials
Universities
Check licences/registrations submitted with applications
BGV teams
Combine professional, academic and employment evidence
Unknown ≠ fake.
Unmapped issuer, new template, legacy document or unavailable source must route to uncertainty/manual verification rather than an automatic accusation.
