Proposal for an integrative performance framework based on Distributed Ledger Technology dedicated to higher education students entering the labor market

Abstract

Recognition of the skills that students acquire during their training is essential for them to access to more complex activities or to pursue further studies. An integrative student-centric framework is proposed in order to fade the boundaries between students, educational institutions and potential employers by making block-chain certification issuers and HR software interoperable. The contributions and demands of stakeholders taking part in the process are investigated. Key drivers of performance are identified for Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) aiming to improve the chances for students in higher education system entering the labor market.
