NOVA IMS Information Management School’s Post

Credentials shouldn’t depend on PDFs. And verification shouldn’t take days. NOVA IMS is now issuing academic credentials as Verifiable Credentials, using blockchain technology aligned with W3C standards, OpenID, and the EBSI pilot. It’s the first production rollout of its kind in Portugal, placing NOVA IMS among Europe’s early adopters. Students can store credentials in their own digital wallet and share proof of a qualification in seconds with employers and institutions – who can verify authenticity automatically, reducing friction and fraud risk. The NOVA IMS Academic Credential Portal was developed by the Nova Blockchain Lab at NOVA IMS, led by Joana Rodrigues Pereira, with development by Francisco Ribeiro. NOVA IMS Dean, Miguel de Castro Neto, highlights its value for students and employers: “As a public school, we have a responsibility to lead solutions that bring real value to the country and to higher education. We developed this technology within NOVA IMS, aligned with European standards, to better serve our students and employers.” Full article: https://lnkd.in/dUpa-XaK #NOVAIMS #DataVisionaries #DataScience #ArtificialIntelligence #AI
