PHILADELPHIA, PA, TORONTO, ON AND GRONINGEN, NETHERLANDS , Oct 22, 2026 - TruMerit® and Centennial College, with support of the Groningen Declaration Network (GDN Network), have unveiled a new vision for the future of global health workforce mobility, introducing a framework designed to help health professionals carry trusted, verifiable records of their qualifications and competencies across borders. The initiative is detailed in a newly published paper titled "Toward a Global Digital Credential Mobility Ecosystem for Migrating Health Professionals."
As healthcare systems worldwide face persistent workforce shortages, internationally educated health professionals often encounter lengthy, duplicative, and inconsistent credential recognition processes that can delay entry into practice. The paper proposes a new approach centered on a Global Competency Record (GCR). This portable digital record could securely bring together verified evidence of a professional's education, training, work experience, certifications, and demonstrated competencies throughout their career.
"Healthcare has become increasingly global, but the systems used to recognize qualifications across borders have not kept pace," said Peter Preziosi, PhD, RN, CAE, FAAN, President and CEO of TruMerit and lead author of the paper. "Qualified professionals can spend months or even years navigating fragmented processes that require the same information to be verified repeatedly. We have an opportunity to modernize credential mobility around trusted digital information, verified competencies, and interoperability while preserving regulatory authority and protecting the public."
"Any one organization or sector cannot solve the challenges facing workforce mobility," said Charmaine Hack, Vice President, Partnerships, Enrollment & External Relations of Centennial College, Vice President of the GDN Network Board, and co-author of the paper. "Creating a trusted ecosystem for credential mobility will require collaboration across education, workforce, regulatory, and technology communities."
"Trusted digital credentials have enormous potential to support individuals as they move across borders for education and work," said Joanne Duklas, Executive Director of the GDN Network and co-author of the paper. "This initiative explores how we can better connect education, credentials, and demonstrated competencies in ways that work for individuals, regulators, and employers."
Unlike a global license or replacement for national regulatory systems, the proposed GCR would provide regulators, employers, and other authorized stakeholders with access to trusted, verified information that can be evaluated against local requirements and standards. For health professionals, it offers a more portable way to demonstrate qualifications. For regulators and employers, it could provide more transparent and reliable information for decision-making. While the initial application focuses on healthcare, the long-term vision is for the GCR to serve as a model that could be adapted for other sectors facing similar credential mobility challenges.
As healthcare systems around the world grapple with workforce shortages, the opportunity extends beyond improving credential verification. It is about creating a future where qualified health professionals can move more efficiently between jurisdictions, while regulators and employers have access to trusted information on which to base decisions. The Global Competency Record is intended as a blueprint for a more connected, transparent, and responsive approach to workforce mobility.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New Book - The Awakened Guide to Self-Esteem and Confidence
Arrives in late November 2026
This forthcoming personal-development guide offers a compassionate path to greater self-worth, inner confidence, and authentic living, with exercises to support your journey.
London, 22nd October 2026 — The Awakened Guide to Self-Esteem and Confidence, a new addition to The Awakened Guide series, will be published in late November 2026.
Written for anyone who has struggled with self-doubt, feelings of inadequacy, or low confidence, the forthcoming book explores how readers can build a healthier, more supportive relationship with themselves.
Rather than presenting confidence as something to perform or prove to others, The Awakened Guide to Self-Esteem and Confidence encourages readers to cultivate it from within. The book examines how past experiences, limiting beliefs, comparison, criticism, and negative self-talk can affect self-esteem—and how greater awareness can begin to shift those patterns.
“True confidence is not about believing that we are better than other people,” says author Guru Rajesh Ananda. “It is about recognising our own worth, trusting ourselves, and no longer allowing fear or self-doubt to determine the life we are willing to live.”
Through accessible guidance and thoughtful reflection, the book will help readers explore:
The difference between self-esteem and confidence
The book’s central message is that self-worth need not be earned through perfection, achievement, appearance, or the approval of others. You can recognise, strengthen, and express it through conscious choices.
The Awakened Guide to Self-Esteem and Confidence is for readers beginning their personal-development journey, as well as those who already understand the importance of self-awareness but want practical support applying it to everyday life.
The book will be available in late November 2026, with further details on the publication date and purchasing options to be announced.
Guru Rajesh Ananda also wrote “The Science of Stillness”, launched in June 2026, and it currently has 33 5-star reviews on Amazon.
About The Awakened Guide Series
The Awakened Guide series explores personal and spiritual development through accessible, compassionate guidance. Each book focuses on a key aspect of inner growth, helping readers understand themselves more deeply, release limiting patterns, and live with greater awareness and intention.
