This document is intended to serve as a guide for the Skills Validation Platform from Indorse. Currently, Indorse is rolling out an early beta of the Anonymous Indorsement Protocol.
Crowdsourced skills validation is currently open to skills based on 6 programming languages -
As a user on the Indorse platform, you can get your programming skills validated by our community of expert programmers.
How the Validation process works
Claimant
- The claimant creates a claim
- S/he will attach a proof of a skill and a short description to showcase this skill.
- S/he will await status after submission.
Validator
- Validators will receive an email for those claims for which they are selected as a validator. This selection is random and they are picked from a growing pool of validators for a specific skill
- They will be invited to “vote” on multiple claims according to the skill they have selected
- By Indorsing the claim, it approves & verifies the claim. If flagged, it would be rejected.
- Upon completion, Ether will be awarded to the validators and the Claimant will have an Indorsed skill (or not)
