Zaigo's Blockchain Innovation in Digital Certification

Zaigo Infotech revolutionized certification with blockchain technology, ensuring secure creation, distribution, and transparent authentication of digital certificates and badges.

About The Client

Our client, myCreds360, offers a unique and highly secure platform where universities, colleges, and institutions can add courses for their learners. Upon completion, learners receive badges or certifications issued by their respective institutions within the platform.

The client wanted to develop a certification management system that would automate the certificate issuance process based on specific criteria while ensuring the authenticity and security of certificates and badges.

Project Background

The client needed a system to issue certificates to students upon successful completion of courses. The certificates had to be tamper-proof, authenticated, and shareable via a simple URL, which could be validated by anyone with access to the URL. Universities and institutions could create and assign custom badges and certificates for each course. Once issued, these certificates could be authenticated and shared, with a secure, immutable record stored on the blockchain.

Goal

The goal was to create a no-code canvas-style certification management platform that would allow educational institutions to create and issue certificates and badges automatically upon course completion. The platform would utilize blockchain technology to store certificates and badges, ensuring that once issued, they could not be tampered with. Furthermore, the platform needed to allow anyone to authenticate certificates and students to share them on social media to showcase their latest skill enhancement. This system would also enable universities to create customized badges and certificates for their courses and assign them to students.

Project Timeline

The overall timeframe for the development of the project was 4 months.

Challenges

Data Integration

Integrating student and course data from the client's existing system using simple APIs specific to the project needs.
Auto Syncing

Automating the sync of course and institution information.
Certificate Generation

Generating and issuing certificates automatically upon course completion.
Auto Assignment

Ensuring that once a certificate or badge is created, it is automatically assigned to students.
Blockchain Storage

Storing certificates and badges on the blockchain as NFTs for tamper-proof security.
Transparency

Blockchain technology provides transparency in the issuance and management of certificates. Educational institutions, students, and potential employers can easily track and verify the entire certification process.

Solution Delivered

To address the challenges, Zaigo adopted a blockchain framework for efficient NFT creation to issue certificates and badges. This approach enhanced system transparency and included a verification URL for each NFT, simplifying certificate sharing and validation.

Blockchain Framework Utilization

Zaigo proposed using Hedera, a blockchain framework known for efficiently generating NFTs for badges and certificates.
Enhanced Transparency

We implemented a verification URL for each NFT, ensuring easy access to relevant information, and thus increasing transparency in the system.
Simplified Certificate Sharing and Validation

The solution allows students to share their certificates via an open URL, enabling anyone to verify the authenticity of the certificate. Moreover, it displays all related information. This process is straightforward and user-friendly.

Results & Benefits

Security and Authenticity

Using blockchain technology ensures the security and authenticity of badges and certificates. Blockchain provides a distributed ledger that is extremely difficult to tamper with, offering confidence that the issued certificates are genuine.
Tamper-Proof

Once issued, the information stored in the NFT cannot be altered or forged. Blockchain guarantees the integrity of the certificates and badges, making them tamper-proof.
Ease of Verification

Anyone with access to the certificate can easily verify its authenticity. This simplifies the verification process for employers, institutions, and other parties interested in validating a student's credentials.
Reduction of Credential Fraud

Blockchain-based NFTs significantly reduce the risk of credential fraud, as they are impossible to forge or manipulate, unlike traditional paper or digital certificates.
Efficiency

Automating the issuance of certificates through blockchain technology reduces administrative overhead and the time required to generate and distribute certificates. This saves educational institutions both time and resources.
Transparency

Blockchain technology provides transparency in the issuance and management of certificates. Educational institutions, students, and potential employers can easily track and verify the entire certification process.
