BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – The Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) has announced that, after a successful trial period, it will continue to provide students with e-certificates across the region.
While CXC will still be offering the traditional paper-based certificate, students who have registered unique and valid e-mail addresses, will now have the option to acquire their official certification through Blockcerts or blockchain based credentials as a free downloadable E-Certificate in a digital format, immediately available to students on their electronic devices once the certificate is ready and available.
The CXC ambitiously kicked off the first regional blockchain-based credential project last October, by issuing E-Certificates to a select group of 24,000 students from Barbados and Trinidad who sat the 2018 May/June examinations. Now students from across the region will be able to download their certificates conveniently, securely and quickly onto their devices, once available.
