For universities and faculties
Register your institution
Issue verifiable credentials to your students — proof of attained competence that machines and regulators can check, not self-reported claims.
What your institution gets
- Issue verifiable credentials (e.g. degree) straight to student profiles in KROG.
- A public institution profile carrying a verified identity from an authoritative register.
- A place in the searchable jurisdiction catalogue of KROG institutions.
- Issuing power bound to an explicit scope — never wider than KROG granted.
Four steps
1 · Register (claimed)
You create the institution and own it. No identifiers are public, the institution is not in the catalogue, and there is no issuing power.
2 · Request verification
You file a request into the KROG queue. Filing does not flip your status — it asks for a review.
3 · KROG verifies identity
A KROG admin checks the institution against an authoritative register (national company register or GLEIF) and sets verified status with a source reference and an audit row. You now appear in the catalogue.
4 · Issuing power (separate decision)
KROG grants the verified institution issuing power within a defined scope and binds a faculty admin. Only then can you issue.
Verified is not the same as issuer
A verified identity does not confer issuing power. An institution can be verified and listed in the catalogue while being able to issue nothing at all. Power is always granted explicitly in step 4 — never implicitly by verification.
What is required
- An official institution name and legal name that can be looked up in an authoritative register.
- Jurisdiction (country) and the official website.
- A person at the institution who owns the profile and is later bound as faculty admin.
