The Digital Trust Center of Excellence (DTCoE) is committed to advancing the professional excellence of the digital identity and trust services workforce. As these domains become foundational to the global digital economy, our mission is to ensure that the human element (knowledge, skills, ethics, and accountability) keeps pace with technological and regulatory progress.
We serve as the first, vendor-neutral, cross-sectoral hub for workforce development, applied research, and community engagement, focused on the unique challenges of qualified trust services, digital identity frameworks under evolving regulations and global digital identity standards. Through strategic initiatives in competency profiling, credentialing, and skills validation, we aim to build resilient, high-assurance practices and empower professionals across public and private sectors. At the heart of our work is a belief that trust is not just built on cryptography and policy, but on people who are qualified, accountable, and continuously evolving.
