ETS — Smart Progress & Certification Platform

Digital certification and progress tracking at scale
A7 partnered in building a nationwide digital learning and certification ecosystem, trusted by both regional boards and international institutions. The platform replaced outdated manual processes with a secure, automated system for records, testing, and credential verification — ensuring transparency, compliance, and the ability to scale globally.
The goal: replace outdated manual processes with a secure, automated system for academic records, testing, and credential verification — ensuring transparency, compliance, and scale.
