Issuing temporary placement credentials

Log onto the NHS Digital Staff Passport employer’s portal using your email address and password.

 

Note: for extra security, multi-factor authentication (MFA) has been added to the Digital Staff Passport login process. Read our user guide on logging in with MFA.

Select either 'Staff passports' or 'Reviewed staff passports' on the left-hand side to view existing passports. Staff members can appear in either of these screens depending on their Digital Staff Passport status.

 

All existing staff passports will be shown, along with additional details about the staff member. Select the staff member’s name to review their details.

Scroll down the profile page and select the link to 'Create temporary placement credential'.

 

You'll now see detailed information on the purpose of a temporary placement credential. Review this information and if this applies to the staff member, select 'Continue'.

 

Record details of the position in the relevant boxes, paying attention to the guidance displayed. When you've finished, select 'Continue'.

 

Next record details of the department the staff member will be working in, paying attention to the guidance displayed. When you've finished, select 'Continue'.

 

Select whether to include Licence to Attend in the credential, and select 'Continue'

 

You'll see a screen summarising the information you've provided. If everything is correct select 'Yes, confirm and provide credential' to proceed.

 

Finally you'll see a screen confirming that the credential has been issued.

 

The staff member will be informed by text and/or email that they have been issued a temporary placement credential. This will not appear in their digital wallet until they choose to review and add it.
