The Safer Buildings Coalition (SBC) and Learning Alliance Corporation (LAC) have launched a strategic partnership to develop a national workforce development platform that advances competency, compliance, and connectivity across the in-building public safety communications industry.
Both organizations have committed to creating a digital credentialing platform that will support contractors, jurisdictions, and operators in verifying and tracking critical professional qualifications.
We aim to deliver a transparent, searchable system where users can upload, verify, and manage credentials such as certifications, licenses, manufacturer training, and continuing education. Verified credentials will be rolled up into individual and company profiles to reflect overall workforce strength. This initiative supports the shared mission of SBC and LAC to elevate safety standards and strengthen workforce readiness in one of the most critical infrastructure sectors. Key features of the platform will include:
AI-assisted and manual credential verification with built-in expiration notifications to ensure up-to-date compliance.
Customized compliance profiles tailored to local requirements for contractors, operators, and jurisdictions.
Secure access for municipalities to import, verify, and manage local contractor data within the platform.
