The digital transformation has been shaking higher education institutions and individual learning paths of the learners equally. As one consequence of this, there is an urgent need for a better way the academic credentials being processed, transported, and presented. On learner\u2019s level, the expectations are also challenging easy portability and full control of the data. Building a reliable system that copes with institutions and learner\u2019s expectations should consider many factors, to name just a few: politics, regulations, legacy systems, and standards. In our presentation, we touch those challenges and thereby present some examples of promising initiatives and projects from Germany, Europe and internationally. We also present DAAD engagement in this field. We conclude our presentation with some recommendations coming from a wide experience DAAD accumulates over the years.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”About” _builder_version=”3.22″ min_height=”677px” custom_margin=”-3px|||||” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” padding_left_right_link_1=”true” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ min_height=”509.8px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ background_image=”https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wp-uploads.bucket.wp.uc3m.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2021\/05\/28095053\/column-background-02.png” custom_padding=”50px|50px|50px|50px” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_phone=”20px|20px|20px|20px|true|true” padding_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding__hover=”|||” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/wp-uploads.bucket.wp.uc3m.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2021\/11\/02110535\/Alexander_Knoth.jpg” title_text=”Alexander_Knoth” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.13.1″ animation_style=”zoom” animation_intensity_zoom=”10%” hover_enabled=”0″ box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_vertical=”32px” box_shadow_blur=”100px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.15)” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding_tablet=”0px|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” padding_tablet=”0px|||” padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|||” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.13.1″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.9em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Roboto|300|||||||” header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” hover_enabled=”0″ header_2_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_2_font_size_phone=”32px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″] Alexander Knoth works as Chief Digital Officer (CDO) and Head of Section Digitalisaton at the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) in Berlin.
