SA UC1 Process

Back to main SA UC1 page

The pilot will implement the reference process of the User-supported Intermediation Pattern as designed in the Project Start Architecture.

Here, the main steps of the process are summarised:

• Student accesses an eProcedure portal of a Data Consumer (DC) in order to apply to higher education studies.
• Student is requested to authenticate at DC with legally recognized electronic identity (eIDAS identity).
• Upon successful authentication the student is presented with a list of study programmes. Student selects the programme of choice.
• Student is requested to provide the higher education diploma evidence that is mandatory for application.
• Student explicitly request Once-only Principle Technical System to retrieve the evidence from a Data Provider (DP) in his/her home country.
• The evidence is retrieved at data providers and aggregated (the way of retrieval and aggregation depends on the selected communication pattern, e.g. intermediation, supported user-managed access, user-transferred data, or self-sovereign identity).
• Student is given a chance to preview the evidence before transfer.
• Student gives consent for the evidence to be sent to the data consumer.
• Evidence is transferred to the data consumer.
• Student provides additional mandatory and optional information that cannot be gathered from the sources of evidence, e.g. e-mail address, contact phone number, address for notice. If users could benefit from providing false information, this information should be validated later (the way to determine this depends on the DC and their trust criteria). If it is on his/her own interest, it can be accepted as is.
• Data consumer checks data completeness and validity of the evidence.
