[05] Credentials
A portfolio that verifies itself.
Every completed project mints an Ed25519-signed credential. Recruiters and partner institutions verify it in one click — no LinkedIn endorsement theatre, no “reach out for references.”
- Public verify URL — works without an Afrixolve account.
- Employer + educator endorsements signed alongside the credential.
- JCS-canonical JSON payload — auditable by anyone.
[06]Voices
Built around the people it serves.
Three voices from the pilot — a student, an employer, a lecturer — on what Afrixolve actually changes day-to-day.
- [01]
“I got my first paid brief in week three. The MoMo payout landed the same day the employer approved the milestone — that hits different when you've been hearing 'unpaid internship' your whole life.”
Ama OwusuBSc Statistics & Data Science · University of Ghana - [02]
“We ran a two-week brief through Afrixolve before the offer. By the end I'd seen the candidate's code, her async habits, and how she handled scope changes. That's worth more than a CV.”
Kofi MensahEngineering Lead · MTN - [03]
“I wrapped my SE practicum around real employer briefs without rewriting the syllabus. The grades I push to Moodle are paired with employer milestone reviews — accreditation evidence that doesn't read like a survey.”
Dr. Kwesi MensahLecturer, Computer Science · University of Ghana
