Flow of the Project:
Student sign-up process: Once the student signs up for a particular college, it is recorded on the blockchain.
Certification: After the student completes his degree, he is issued a certificate, which is recorded on the blockchain.
Verification step: The employer verifies the certificate and checks to see if it has been tampered at any point.
Audit: The regulator, MHRD, has the ability to view and audit all of the certificates that are issued on the chain. They can also view the different verifications that are done by the employer whenever a student presents his certificate.
