What changed

This document is a published patent application from the USPTO detailing a novel system for managing educational and career history information. The proposed method involves using a blockchain network with a 'neural consensus proof' mechanism to register, verify, and store resume ledger data, educational history, career information, and portfolio details. The system aims to create a secure and verifiable record of an individual's professional and educational background by organizing this data into history blocks and propagating them across the blockchain.

While this is a patent application and not a regulation, it signals potential future technological developments in credential verification and data management. Companies developing or utilizing such platforms, particularly those in the education technology or HR tech sectors, should be aware of this patent filing. Compliance officers should monitor the progress of this application and any subsequent patents granted, as they could influence future data handling practices and the need for specific security or verification protocols related to educational and employment records.

Abstract

Proposed are a method and an apparatus thereof for providing an educational history information platform service through neural consensus proof using a blockchain network based on random consensus proof, the method including registering resume ledger data corresponding to a first user on a ledger information database organized on the basis of user information, verifying at least one of educational history information, career information, and portfolio information, obtained in response to the resume ledger data, combining verification information generated according to the verification processing and the educational history information, career information, and portfolio information to organize history block data, propagate the history block data to a neural consensus proof-based blockchain network, and establish a connection to a new block shared through the blockchain network, and registering the history block data propagated to the blockchain network in the ledger information database by mapping the history block data to the resume ledger data.
