Collaborators (other groups)

The Education Architecture Working Group will collaborate with other existing or future Hyperledger and other blockchain working groups focused on Education and Training (curriculum focused).

The Education Architecture Working Group will also collaborate and share community development and standards work in credentialing and interoperability with appropriate standards bodies and groups interested in (1) DIDs; (2) data security; and (3) privacy policy.  This includes groups working on DLT other than Hyperledger, such as Ethereum or other blockchains.

Other Industry Affiliations may include: We will reach out to other industry groups to determine their interest in participating.
