Is the Competency Passport a certification?

No. It is a verifiable practice record. It is not a certification, credential, or accreditation, and it does not guarantee interviews or job placement.

Who can see my Passport?

Only you, unless you explicitly enable a shareable public view. Personal contact information is never shown on the public view.

How is evidence verified?

Verified simulations are completed under integrity conditions (identity declaration, session timer, copy/paste restrictions, focus monitoring) and, for the highest tier, reviewed by a human against a rubric.

Can I remove entries?

Yes. You can archive or delete simulation entries at any time and request full data deletion via the privacy page.

Does this replace ACRP or SOCRA certification?

No. The Passport is independent and does not replace formal certifications from any organization. It is designed to complement existing credentials with structured, practice-based evidence.

Quick answer

The Competency Passport is a private profile that captures your readiness across clinical research competency areas. Each entry is backed by evidence: a scored simulation, a casebook attempt, or a verified assessment. Practice-only and verified evidence are labeled distinctly. The Passport is designed as a practice-based readiness signal for candidates and reviewers — not a certification.

DefinitionA clinical research competency passport is a private, evidence-backed readiness record that captures scored simulation attempts, rubric outcomes, and integrity signals across recognized competency domains.

What the Passport contains

Competency domain summary informed by widely used frameworks
Structured evidence: scored responses, rubric outcomes, integrity signals
Distinct labels for AI Practice Only, Pending Human Review, and Verified
Your Competency Score history and trajectory
A shareable public view that hides personal data and unverified work

Practice vs Verified evidence

Every simulation attempt is either practice or verified. Practice attempts are for you — they help you improve and never appear on a public Passport. Verified attempts follow stricter integrity conditions (declaration, timer, copy/paste restrictions) and can be surfaced with a "Verified" label after human review. This separation exists to protect the integrity of your record.

Privacy and control

The Passport is private by default. You choose whether to enable a public link and whether to reveal your full responses. Personal contact details are never shown publicly. You can request deletion at any time.

How it complements existing credentials

The Passport does not replace formal certifications. It is a practice-based readiness signal that reviewers, mentors, and hiring teams can use alongside your CV, training records, and any external credentials. Competency Labs makes no claim of employer recognition or credential equivalence.
