Open Badges 3.0 — verifiable credentials
Each UserBadge generates:
1. Public verification page
/badges/verify/[userBadgeId] (no auth):
- Issuer logo + name
- Badge name + description
- Recipient name
- Issuance date
- Download JSON-LD + verify online
2. JSON-LD (Open Badges 3.0-compatible)
/api/badges/verify/[userBadgeId] returns an OpenBadgeCredential (W3C VC data model). Authenticity is established by resolving this public URL/API against the platform registry. A cryptographic proof (e.g. tenant EdDSA signature) is on the roadmap — it is not embedded yet.
3. Schema.org EducationalOccupationalCredential
For Google + LinkedIn discovery.
4. LinkedIn sharing
Today the recipient shares the public verification URL on LinkedIn manually. A native one-click "Add to Profile" button is on the roadmap.
Quiz engine for certification exams
Typical configuration
maxAttempts: 1, timeLimitMinutes: 180, shuffleQuestions: true, accessCode: "CERT2026", scoringPolicy: "latest", reviewMode: "after_due_date", passingScore: 70, allowGoBack: false.
Lockdown + passive integrity
Enable requireLockdownBrowser (Safe Exam Browser or the StudeiaMobile app), ipWhitelist and accessCode. QuizAttempt persists tabSwitchCount, copyPasteCount, blurCount, total timeSpentSec, IP and user-agent, plus flagged/flagReason. Average time per question is derived from total time ÷ question count. Inline in the admin gradebook with ShieldAlert. Admin decides: annul, maintain, require presential retake.
Psychometric analytics
After exam, /quiz-analytics returns: item difficulty, point-biserial discrimination, distractor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, score distribution. Validates test reliability.
Active proctoring (limitation)
For certifications requiring webcam/microphone/screen sharing (AWS, Cisco, CFA): Studeia does NOT have natively. Solutions: integrate Examity/ProctorU/Honorlock via LTI 1.3, or physical proctoring at authorized centers.
Public API for integrations
Professional council queries certifications via API:
# List the badge catalog (scope gamification:read)
GET https://[institution].studeia.com/api/institution/gamification/badges
Authorization: Bearer mia_...
# Validate a specific issued credential (public, no auth)
GET https://[institution].studeia.com/api/badges/verify/[userBadgeId]
For deeper integration: webhook automation notifies council when student completes compliance course.
B2C charging (limitation)
Studeia focuses on B2B — institution charges students via:
- Stripe: international card (USD or BRL)
- Asaas: PIX, boleto, card (Brazil)
For B2C with affiliates/marketplace: use EadBox or Hotmart as front + Studeia as LMS via API.
