Hello Dan Not a use case we have considered, as it's related to a person having a credential rather than a credential being available. We would need to be able to say that the claim maker / fact checker had a credential, which is a use case that we ducked out of because of concerns over how to verify that they really did have the credential. Assuming that is fixed somehow, e.g. with a hasEOCred property and an out of band means of checking that assertion, here's my Friday evening best shot: An EducationalOccupationalCredential, as a subtype of CreativeWork, can be said to be about something; so can the thing in which the claim is made, so: { "@context": "http://schema.org/", "@type": "Book", "about": "climate change" "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jo Bloggs", "hasEOCred": { "@type": "EducationalOccupationalCredential", "name": "PhD in Climatology", "credentialCategory": "Doctorate", "about": "Climatology", "recognizedBy": "University of Poppleton" "competencyRequired": "..." } } Of course the value for hasEOCred could be a link to data about the credential elsewhere, e.g. on the Univeristy website. I've used recognizedBy to provide the name of the university that awarded the credential. We could instead say that it was/is Offered by them, but it seems reasonable and simpler to assume that the University would recognize their own credentials. The limits on expressiveness are those of matching the subject of the credential / the competencies it recognizes to the subject of the work being fact checked.
