Several clients have told us that they were not aware of some of the new features we’ve been adding in to CVS (Credential Verification Service). We are grateful for all the suggestions that we have been receiving on improvements, large and small, that we can make to improve the functionality and usability of the service. Please keep those suggestions coming!

Here is an overview of the significant improvements we’ve made to the service over the last few months.
