Resposta curta

Professional certification courses use Studeia for: (1) Open Badges 3.0-compatible issuance (W3C VC JSON-LD) with a public verification page/API (cryptographic signing on roadmap). (2) Quiz engine with lockdown (Safe Exam Browser/StudeiaMobile), IP whitelist and passive integrity + psychometric analytics. (3) Multi-criteria rubric gradebook. (4) Public API for council integration. Limitations: no native B2C checkout (use Stripe/Asaas) and no webcam proctoring (use Examity/ProctorU via LTI).

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.

FAQ

Does Studeia issue verifiable credentials?

Yes, via Open Badges 3.0-compatible JSON-LD (W3C Verifiable Credential data model). Each UserBadge generates a public verification page at /badges/verify/[userBadgeId] with Schema.org EducationalOccupationalCredential. An external verifier (recruiter, company, professional council) confirms authenticity via the public URL + JSON-LD download against the platform registry. No blockchain. Cryptographic proof/signature and a native LinkedIn 'Add to Profile' button are on the roadmap; today LinkedIn sharing is manual via the public URL.

Can I integrate with professional councils (CRM, OAB, CRC)?

Via the Studeia public API. List the institution's badge catalog with GET /api/institution/gamification/badges (scope gamification:read), and validate a specific issued credential with the public GET /api/badges/verify/[userBadgeId]. Or the student presents the public URL for manual verification. Automatic integration with each council's own system requires custom development; a per-student issued-badges listing requires a dedicated UserBadge endpoint if exposed.

Has proctoring to prevent fraud in certification exam?

Native passive integrity: tabSwitchCount, copyPasteCount, blurCount, total time + time anomalies, IP and user-agent — inline flags in gradebook (ShieldAlert). Plus lockdown via Safe Exam Browser/StudeiaMobile, per-quiz IP whitelist and access code. Active proctoring (webcam/microphone/screen sharing): NOT available natively. For certifications requiring rigorous proctoring (CFA, AWS, Cisco): integrate Examity/ProctorU/Honorlock via LTI 1.3.

Can I charge for the certificate/course?

For B2B (institution charges students): Stripe + Asaas integrated natively. For B2C with affiliates/integrated checkout Hotmart-style: NO native system. Who needs affiliates can use EadBox/EadPlataforma as front + Studeia as LMS via API integration.
