Decentralized Platform for Issuing and Verifying Student Achievements

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a prototype platform for issuing and verifying of student achievements across different forms of academic engagement, using blockchain technology. The proposed solution leverages smart contracts and NFT standards to represent and store verifiable proofs of student participation and performance. By utilizing decentralized storage and wallet-based identity, the platform enables secure, transparent, and tamper-proof management of student achievements. This paper outlines the conceptual framework, presents a technical prototype built on Ethereum-compatible blockchain, and discusses the potential implications of applying tokenization in higher education for incentivizing engagement, ensuring verifiability, and fostering innovation in e-learning ecosystems.
