NISM CERTIFICATION

National Skills Registry (NSR) Registration for NISM Certification Applicants

NSR Brief

NSR is a facility developed and managed by NSDL Database Management Limited (NDML) at the request of NASSCOM (the premier trade body and the chamber of commerce of the IT-BPO industries in India www.nasscom.in) and its member companies. An important objective of NSR is to develop secure identity for each registered person (referred to as Knowledge Professionals) along-with a detailed fact-sheet of information. This profile for each Knowledge Professional (KP) is hosted online on NSR system and can be accessed by users authorized by the KP to view his / her profile. KP can register his / her demographic, academic, employment experience and biometric details to complete the registration process. In order to ensure that each employee can have only one unique industry profile, NSR has deployed a biometric based system. NSR issues a registration number i.e. NSR Registration number, also called ITPIN for each registered profile. The KP himself / herself or the user companies authorized by the KP can access the profile with reference to this NSR Number/ITPIN. Authorized companies or KP can request for a background check to verify the information of the KP. Background Verification Companies (EBCs) empanelled by NSR would carry out the verification and report the verification results against the profile for the KP.

NSR is used by IT & BPO industry and a few companies in financial services sector for creating and referencing secure and verified online profile of employees and job applicants.
