How to store students' certificates on the blockchain to improve security and accessibility.
GOAL
To store Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) students’ certificates on the blockchain to improve their security and accessibility.
APPROACH
Identified SAIT as an organization that can benefit by transitioning from paper to blockchain-based credentials.
ODEM tested a pilot program placing 25 SAIT students’ Pre-Employment Automotive Service Technician program certificates on the blockchain.
After a successful pilot run, ODEM then put an entire graduating class’s (over 4,800 SAIT students) certificates on the blockchain.
RESULTS
ODEM successfully placed these SAIT students’ certificates on the blockchain by utilizing the ODEM Platform and smart contracts. The students now have authority over their tamper-proof educational records.
