Every credential is hashed and signed. The public page recomputes the hash and checks the signature against the published key.
For employers and training providers
- Post a job or gig. Ask for a credential when the work needs one.
- Sell a course on Paystack and issue a signed credential when someone finishes.
- This release does not hold gig money. You agree payment with the other person.
Questions
- Is Skills Connect free for job seekers?
- Yes. Learners and professionals can sign up, learn, apply, and build a portfolio at no charge. Training providers pay a commission on paid courses, and employers can pay to feature a listing.
- How do I know a credential is real?
- Every VerifySkill credential is digitally signed. Anyone can open the public verify page or scan the QR code. We recompute the hash and check the signature against our published public key.
- Do you hold money for gigs?
- Not in this first release. Course purchases go through Paystack. For gigs and jobs, you agree terms and pay each other. We record the engagement and unlock reviews when both sides confirm the work is done.
- Do I need to install an app?
- No. Skills Connect is a fast website that also works as an installable app on your phone. A native Flutter app follows after this web launch.
