TID Network for Institutions
Become a TID Network Institute
Join the TID (Trainee Identification Number) Network and become part of a nationally coordinated trainee credential management ecosystem. TID enables educational institutions, training centres, universities, academies, and skill development organizations to create permanent digital identities for their students and maintain verified academic and skill records throughout their learning journey.
Once approved, your institution will receive access to a secure institutional dashboard from where authorized officials can generate TID numbers, manage student records, and update qualification information whenever required.
What is TID?
