As Alabama government focuses on credential in their occupatio related research, we need to ontologically represent 'credential' term in OccO.

Barry et al has recently published a paper titled "On Credentials":

We would also like to like our ontology modeling to the handbook "Credential Engine Schemas Handbook"
https://credreg.net/ctdl/handbook
where they call their system "Credential Transparency Description Language (CTDL)"
Note that they did not use any upper level ontology like BFO.

See what is described in our OccO paper:
"Following [34], credential can be understood as a document that reflects an attestation to the
holder’s competence with respect to a given task, at or above a certain threshold. Accordingly,
credentials are issued by some authority and are numerous."
The reference: https://philpapers.org/archive/SMIOC-2.pdf
