Why this course

Once wallets are live, education providers and employers will be asked to issue into them. DC4EU and its national follow-ups show the route; members need practical capability. Wave 2 because test environments and national rules, including Germany's from January 2027, settle during 2027.

  1. Describe the issuance and presentation protocols and credential formats used in the EUDI Wallet ecosystem.
  2. Model an education or employment credential as an attestation suitable for wallets.
  3. Run issuance and presentation in a reference implementation or test environment.
  4. Plan issuer onboarding, trust registration and status management.
