Credential Exposure profile
Count where credentialed time, authority, supervision, and liability enter one accepted outcome.
Under the pillar Unbundling Work, Credentials, and Liability
Inputs
A workflow, role rules, accepted outcomes, touch data, time data, and liability review.
Method
For each stage record the credential, reason, minutes, authority, supervision, decision, evidence, and party responsible after failure.
Output
Current and proposed credential exposure per accepted outcome.
Boundary
Lower exposure is not automatically better. Direct professional involvement may improve safety, trust, or learning.
Stop
Stop the redesign when exposure falls but accepted outcomes, responsibility, trust, or capability formation worsen.
