Side Meeting | Monday 9 June, 09.00-12:30 | Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton Waterfront
As next-generation AI technologies transform education, the need for seamless collaboration and interoperability across the Ed Tech landscape has never been greater. At 1EdTech, we believe in collaboration and interoperability to shape the future, with our standards providing essential pieces of a larger ecosystem.
This session introduces UniformID, a decentralised identity framework based on the W3C DID standard. Tailored to the education sector's needs, UniformID addresses key challenges in directory cataloguing, marketplace support, and interoperability. As AI tools become more prevalent, UniformID ensures secure, scalable management capabilities for courses, applications, institutions, and learners.
Key takeaways include how UniformID:
- Fosters collaboration and innovation by enabling seamless, cross-platform interoperability.
- Integrates with standards to support AI-driven innovation in education.
- Solves real-world identity management challenges, enhancing collaboration and trust across the ecosystem.
By adopting UniformID, educational institutions can future-proof their digital environments while leading the way in AI-powered education.
