The platform, built atop the Bitcoin blockchain, will facilitate the issuance of blockchain -
based academic certificates, which will complement the hard copies that are currently standard.
Basically, its provisions are as follows: If a prospective teacher who has a baccalaureate or advanced degree in an
academic major other than education passes the appropriate certification exams and background checks and is hired by a school district to teach in the subject area of preparation in grades 8 - 12, the candidate will be granted a probationary
certificate for a maximum of two years, at the end of which time the school district decides,
based on the teacher's performance, whether or not to recommend the issuance of full standard certification.
