EduNetChain: A Review on Blockchain-Based Approaches for Secure Student Profile Verification and Alumni Interaction
Abstract: This paper presents a conceptual framework and literature review for EduNetChain, an innovative platform designed to enhance student?alumni interaction while ensuring the authenticity of academic profiles through blockchain simulation. The study reviews existing blockchain-based credential verification and alumni networking systems to identify current challenges in combining secure verification with interactive engagement. Based on these insights, the EduNetChain architecture is proposed, integrating conventional web technologies with blockchain simulation (using Hardhat) to enable tamper-resistant and verifiable student data management. The framework outlines modules for job postings, mentorship, and secure communication within a trusted academic network. This conceptual study serves as a foundation for future implementation and evaluation toward fully decentralized deployments.
