Students own their transcripts and diplomas.
A new system where academic credentials are issued as W3C Verifiable Credentials, signed by schools, and fully controlled by students using their own keys.
No more dependency on centralized services like the National Student Clearinghouse. Students can share exactly what they want, when they want.
