Free, public, and owned by the holder.
Every valid certification under AIRS-J/1, the Standard for Judgment in AI-Enabled Work, is recorded in a public register. Employers and clients can check any credential here, free, with the holder's credential code. No account is needed. A holder's name appears only if they clearly agree to it, separately from anything else. They can withdraw that agreement at any time. The credential belongs to the holder, and no employer or sponsor may withhold or revoke it.
Free to check. No account needed.

The rules, as written
The register rules, word for word from section 14 of the Standard.
Register contents, name consent, free verification, credential ownership, candidate data rights, retention, and use of assessment data, which is never sold.
14.1 Register contents. The register records: credential code, track, role edition where used (Section 13.3), band, confidence, standard version, issue date, expiry date, status, and the plain-language scope description required by Section 2.2. It does not record employer, dimension scores, stakes profiles, or any transcript content.
14.2 Name publication is opt-in. A holder's name appears in the searchable register only with their explicit, separately-given, revocable consent. The default is verification by credential code: any party holding the code can verify the entry. Withdrawal of name consent does not affect validity.
14.3 Verification is free and requires no account, no registration and no commercial relationship with AIR APAC.
14.4 The credential belongs to the individual. It survives change of employment. No employer, sponsor or delivery partner may withhold, revoke, condition, or claim ownership of it, including where they paid for it. This is a term of every delivery-partner contract. The credential is the holder's. The transcript and scoring record are AIR APAC's record of the assessment, which the holder may obtain under Section 14.5.
14.5 Candidate data rights. A candidate may obtain their own transcript and result, and request correction of factual errors in it.
14.6 Retention. Transcripts and results are retained for as long as AIR APAC and its instrument provider need them for certification, recertification, appeal, the evidence programme and the commissioning organisation's licence. The retention period for each purpose is published and stated in the notices under Sections 12.9 and 13.4. Where a person's transcript or result is kept only for the evidence programme and improvement, it is kept without the person's name and contact details unless they have agreed to a named record.
14.7 Use of data. Assessment data is used by AIR APAC and its instrument provider to operate, validate and improve this Standard and the official instrument. It is not sold.
