Techniques described herein relate to tracking and analyzing digital credential usage in sensor-monitored environments. A digital credential platform server may receive data identifying credential receivers, and then retrieve the digital credentials generated and issued to the credential receivers. The digital credential platform server may then determine sets of physical activities associated with the digital credentials issued to a credential receiver, and may use sensor-based monitoring systems to detect the user actions of the credential receiver and compare those actions to the physical activities associated with the credentials. Comparisons between the user actions detected for the credential receiver, and the physical activities associated with the receiver's credentials, may be used to determine re-credentialing time periods, credential expiration times, and the like.

Tracking digital credential usage in a sensor-monitored environment

Techniques described herein relate to executing and monitoring physical simulations within a digital credential platform. Physical simulation evaluation systems may be implemented including sensor-based monitoring systems, simulation output systems, and/or simulation environment control systems. Particular types of digital credential simulations may be determined and executed within a physical environment, during which a plurality of sensors may be used to monitor the physical actions of a credential receiver during physical simulation. The physical action data may be analyzed and compared to digital credential requirements to determine one or more digital credentials to be generated and issued to the credential receiver.

Automatically certifying worker skill credentials based on monitoring worker actions in a virtual reality simulation environment

Techniques relate to managing digital credentials. An employee records database is accessed to identify a plurality of employees. Within the plurality of employees, a first set of employees is identified. For each employee in the first set of employees, a server computer hosting a digital credential repository is accessed to identify a plurality of digital credentials associated with the employee. The plurality of digital credentials of each employee in the first set of employees are analyzed to generate a statistical analysis of the plurality of digital credentials. With the statistical analysis complete, data identifying the statistical analysis is transmitted to a user device.

Digital credential system for employer-based skills analysis

Techniques relate to managing digital credentials. An operation evaluation system monitors, using sensors configured to detect physical attributes of a user in a physical environment, physical attributes of the user while the user performs a user action in a testing environment. Data corresponding to the physical attributes of the user is transmitted to one or more digital credential generators. A digital credential template associated with at least one of the physical attributes of the user is determined. For the digital credential template, a criteria associated with the digital credential template is retrieved and compared to the physical attributes. Based on the comparison, whether or not the user is eligible to receive a digital credential is determined based on the digital credential template, and, in response to determining that the user is eligible to receive a digital credential based on the digital credential template, a digital credential is generated.
