Benefits for Partners

Why was Workers Badge/Blockchain Credentials created and what does it represent?

W.B. is a Web3 application by Mediterraneo Lab 4.0 SRL, entirely customized, with a registered trademark in Europe and the U.S.A., and designed according to a method now recognized as a patent in Italy (UIBM n. 102020000007453) and the United States of America (USPTO n. 0334608 A1) that allows students, company workers, professionals and job seekers to build a digital Electronic File that keeps track of their verifiable credentials, registered on Blockchain, in the world of work such as: certificates for training courses, exams, titles, company roles, projects and benefits received.

We are also developing a virtual agent (AI MENTOR) based on Artificial Intelligence that acts as a facilitator and orienteer for users, who will be able to receive suggestions and advice on the courses to choose, based on parameters such as the skills already in the portfolio, the desired career and/or company needs, and, according to the new European paradigms of skills validation, certify a professional family. The digital curriculum based on blockchain, and guided by AI, will solve the problem of verifiability on DLTs of the identity of all Stakeholders and the real skills/qualifications/activities, allowing HR Officers to save time and money in the Hiring process of candidates and for the latter to demonstrate their real expertise with a win-win logic also for third parties with different interests such as Employment Agencies, Institutions and all other Stakeholders in the world of Work.
