We too are also looking at how ID cards can be produced for distance learners both home and overseas/ off campus/ franchise students etc, without them having to attend the University. We are looking at students sending photos to us, either in a hard copy or electronic format, but are still considering how we can assure ourselves that the photo is of the person it says it is! Linking in with the initial enquiry, do other HEIs have a procedure or advice for authenticating photos for students not seen?

This is a complicated procedure, especially when it comes to student photographs - these students can't come in person to be photographed, so we have to work from photos they send in. Has anyone else had this problem, and how was it solved? Do you produce standard student ID cards for this category of student? Maybe it's the fact that we gove these students cards, or maybe because our cards need photos - it's a pain in any case! Any help gratefully received.
