This document discusses using blockchain technology to provide digital credentials from universities and other educational institutions. It notes that currently there are issues with verifying applicant and employee qualifications that costs time and money. Using blockchain could authenticate credentials in a decentralized way, reducing bureaucracy while increasing security. This would benefit learners by showing verified achievements to potential employers worldwide, and benefit businesses and academia through a more transparent verification process and access to global talent pools.
