A verified YogaPros Live CV — qualifications, grade, accreditation, insurance, reviews and badges, all read by a person before publication.
Standards · Live CV

Verified by a person.

The single source of truth — who you trained with, when you qualified, what cover you carry. Not a profile you write. A record we verify.

The substance

Not a bio. A credential record.

Standard teacher bios are written by the teacher. Live CV is written by the system. Provider-confirmed training, time-stamped qualifications, currently-active insurance — published in one place, owned by you, validated by us.

i · Training

Provider-confirmed.

When you submit a certification, we verify directly with your training provider that the course was delivered, the dates align, and the lead teacher’s name matches. The provider confirms; the record stands.

ii · Qualifications

Time-stamped.

Every credential carries a verification date. Studios and students see when each line was confirmed. Old, expired or revoked entries don’t quietly vanish — they’re marked. The record is honest about its own age.

iii · Cover

Currently-active.

Insurance status appears live. If a policy lapses, the CV shows it. If renewed, the CV updates within one business day. No back-dated records, no overstated cover, no claims that quietly expired.

The process

From submission to public, one business day.

Most credential systems are slow because they pretend to be careful. We’re fast because the verification is concrete — we contact the training provider, confirm the cohort, and timestamp the result. No queue. No committee. No theatre.

The reader’s view

Public credentials. No marketing.

Students · the chooser

Searching by what’s real, not what’s claimed.

A student looking for a teacher sees the verified grade, the verified cover, the years on the register. Marketing copy is absent. The decision rests on the record.

Studios · the hirer

Hiring on the record, not the deck.

A studio considering a hire sees verified qualifications top of page, live cover figures (£6M / €6.5M / $2M), and time on the register. They know what’s behind you before they hand you a class.

Employers · the validator

A reference that doesn’t need calling.

Corporates, retreat centres and the NHS treat the Live CV as a working reference — the institutional body has already done the verification call. Hiring time compresses; risk drops.

Insurers · the underwriter

Cover that attaches to a real record.

Balens, Zurich, Insurance Canopy underwrite against the Live CV — cover activates when the CV is verified, lapses if the credential is revoked. The record isn’t cosmetic. It’s the legal substrate.

Years on the register compound. Time itself becomes part of the credential — a record that strengthens the longer you keep it current.
