OS.UNIVERSITY

From the team who wrote the book on ‘Blockchain in Education’, comes an innovative platform, which provides learners from all ages, educators and businesses with a digital credentials wallet for discovery, validation and verification of achievements.

OS.University a.k.a. “The Open Source University” is a research & development project, already 5 years in the making, which is intended to enable your decentralized educational and professional identity.

The videos in the playlist below tell the story of the endeavour, while the author’s research page contains  publications on the subject as part of his broader work on the critical success factors in open source stakeholder management (“Критични фактори за успех в управлението на заинтересованите страни при проекти с отворен код”).
