Oct 1, 2022
Next-Gen is announcing a partnership with Concordium to deliver world-class IT service and reshape education for students, educators, institutions and businesses.
Oct. 1, 2022 - PRLog -- Next-Gen will open up a decentralized platform for anyone who wants to enter the right job market, for businesses who want competent employees, and for educational institutions or educators who want to teach relevant, updated and meaningful curriculums. Next-Gen's platform will be for all individuals to turn their passion and dreams into meaningful qualifications and successful lives.
Through DAO-based educational grants, Next-Gen will provide access to global qualifications and work to address the needs of neurodivergent students. By easing concerns such as lack of access and inclusion, Next-Gen aims to close the gap between the kind of education students receive and those they need. Next-Gen will provide a symbiotic ecosystem that empowers all parties to reach their potential in the world of work.
Using Concordium's unique blockchain technology will ensure that everyone in the world can use Next-Gen as an open decentralized infrastructure. This includes SSO solutions, with an ID layer at the protocol level, validated by a third party, which allows people and companies to trust one another while remaining private with zero-knowledge proof.
The partnership with Concordium will allow Next-Gen to ensure privacy, security, ease-of-use, and compliance for its partners and users, while coordinating with global educational institutions to implement a curriculum and qualifications framework for lifelong learning.
