Union Public Schools Launches Blockchain-Based Credentials

While blockchain-based credentials are gaining attention in the higher education sector, Union Public Schools in Oklahoma wants to be a trailblazer in bringing the technology to the K-12 market. Starting in June 2019, students will be able to get a digital copy of their diplomas and transcripts that can be verified through Learning Machine’s Blockcerts open standard for digital credentials. This is Learning Machine’s first partnership with a school district to put credentials in the hands of students for their personal use.
