Update 0.9.0: Certificates, Lyceum

Updated

Finishing a course now yields a certificate: with a number that gives nothing away, publicly verifiable without an account.

Neu:

A certificate of its own:

  • The certificate is its own record, not a checkbox on the enrolment. It is created on completion and stays unchanged afterwards, even if the course is rebuilt later.

Triggered on lesson completion:

  • Not on every progress report, otherwise the check would run every second without anything being able to change.

The number gives nothing away:

  • It is not sequential. A 000007 would tell every recipient they are the seventh graduate.

Verification without an account:

  • An employer shown the certificate has no access here. The public check answers with valid, course and date. Nothing more.

No PDF, and we say so:

  • A PDF would need a renderer on the server and would lose exactly the verifiability. Anyone needing a file prints the page.
