Grades and academic qualifications are essential in order to take part in competitions and demonstrate the actual possession of qualifications and skills. Through Almacert, every graduate will find their Diploma Supplement registered and guaranteed by their University thanks to the immutability and transparency offered by Blockchain technology. The Diploma Supplement solves, at a European level, the recognition of degree certificates.
