The academic blockchain document can further be used for admission for higher studies and companies for job offers. “The banks and financial institutions can also use this system for sanctioning of educational loans and merit-based scholarship based on the qualifications of the applicants.
One can verify the authenticity of the certificates even after several years of issuance. It will provide the trail of all the insertions or changes made on a particular certificate. It results in Transparent, Tamper Proof, and Paperless usage of certificates. It also substantially cuts down the time for verification and reduces paperwork,” CBSE statement added.
