Pilot scenario

UC3 - DE4A

The pilot scenario involves the SSI approach for requesting diploma recognition in the eVŠ system in Slovenia and at the University of Lisbon in Portugal. Students will request their diploma evidence in the form of verifiable credentials from the data providers (issuers) in Portugal, Slovenia and Spain, store them in their mobile digital wallets, and present them in the form of verifiable presentations to the two data consumers (verifiers) in Slovenia and Portugal. The data consumers will be able to check the validity of the verifiable presentations using the EBSI infrastructure, in particular that they correspond to a registered schema, that the issuers are also registered as such in EBSI, and that the identity of the student in the diploma matches the authentication data of the student authenticated at the DE.
