credentialling
Issuing official authorization
Credentialling is the process of verifying and granting credentials—certifications, licenses, or other qualifications that establish someone's authority to practice a profession.
Healthcare systems credential doctors before granting hospital privileges.
The term extends to any formal vetting of qualifications: The credentialling process took three months.
