The Open Property Data Association (OPDA) has launched an accreditation programme for members.
This accreditation recognises members who take the first step to formally self-certify their practical alignment with OPDA’s values.
Through this process, accredited members will commit to improve how property data is shared and used, collaborating to help unlock its full potential for the benefit of the industry and consumers alike.
Accredited status confirms a member’s commitment to OPDA’s core principles, including the promotion of open standards, ethical data use and a shared vision for a more efficient and connected property ecosystem.
OPDA will be hosting a series of webinars and support sessions to help members understand the accreditation process and options through to full technical membership, including how to apply, what the criteria involve and what it means to be officially recognised.
Maria Harris, chair at OPDA, said: “By introducing this accreditation, we’re giving organisations a way to demonstrate their leadership in transforming the future of property data.
“It’s a mark of quality and intent and it’s one more step in our journey to a more open, collaborative industry.”
