Union human resource development minister Prakash Javadekar has mentioned that all the degrees and diplomas will be given in a digital format to the students from next year. p a national academic depository to provide degrees and diplomas in a digital format was a step towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi`s Digital India vision
Degrees, diplomas, mark sheets, migration certificate, skill certificate, etc., will be digitized and put in the national academic depository
The depository will share students information with anyone like an employer or background screening firms only after getting consent from a student. But companies have been complaining about frauds in job applications, including academic frauds, and because of the lack of a national system that can help them verify academic records online by paying a nominal fee.
