Abstract

The aim of this project is to design software that verify student certificate via block chain and quick response code technologies. The project was motivated based on high level of production and circulation of fake certificates, impersonation of certificate, certificate verification is stressful and time consuming and lack of real time authentication of certificates. The methodology adopted for this research is Object Oriented Analysis and Design on proposed study, a centralized system for authentication of certificates issued or tendered to Nigeria students on graduation. The proposed system used blockchain with quick response (QR) code technologies for authentication and implemented with python flask as web framework, SQLite database management system and bootstrap library. The expected result of system is to develop an online certificate verification system that checkmate certificate forgery, sanitize educational system, and simplify for organizations and recruiter’s authentication of certificates.
