What is SSI Academy Project?

SSI Academy Project aims to offer a large educational platform on Self-Sovereign Identity and related technologies such as decentralized identifiers, verifiable credentials, crypto wallets, distributed ledgers, and blockchain. Our idea is to give free courses to developers, legal or anyone that is interested in the technological framework.

The verifiable credential also complies with the OpenBadge format, a standard used in international circuits to demonstrate one’s skills.
