The Role of Athumi in the digital student certificate

Athumi, itsme®, en Dibbs recently launched a groundbreaking solution for the digital student certificate in collaboration with itsme® and Dibbs. This innovation enables students to securely and efficiently share their student status, offering several benefits for both students and employers.

An Innovation Based on the Athumi Personal Online Datastore (Pod)

The digital student certificate is shared via a secure digital vault, the Athumi Personal Online Datastore (Pod), ensuring that data can be retrieved safely and reliably. Thanks to the integration with the itsme® app, students can grant permission with a single click to share their student status with potential employers or third parties.

The Athumi Pod ensures that sensitive personal data is managed securely and transparently. This means that:

  • Students have full control over who they share their data with and can revoke access at any time.
  • Companies receive 100% accurate and up-to-date information.
  • Data exchange is secure and fully GDPR-compliant.

Björn De Vidts, CEO of Athumi, explains:
"With the Athumi Pod, we ensure that sensitive and valuable personal information flows smoothly and securely, while the ‘data subject’—through itsme®—decides who they share their data with and for how long. Integration into existing apps ensures a seamless experience for students. Together, we enable personal data to be used safely and intelligently for the benefit of both the economy and society."

The Digital Student Certificate is a Partnership Success

The collaboration with itsme® and Dibbs is crucial and highlights the strategic importance of Athumi’s partners. While itsme® ensures that students can securely share their student certificate via the digital vault, Dibbs provides a seamless user experience by integrating the certificate into the popular Dibbs app.
