With the increase in students graduating every year, the forged certificate issue, a problem that could compromise the educational industry badly, has arisen. Due to the lack of measurement for verifying the integrity of educational credentials, certificate forgery has become one of the most frequently occurring frauds in the recruiting industry. With the help of blockchain technology, universities can provide the critical features required by the certificate distribution system to countermeasure this issue. This paper aims to provide recommendations for implementing an Educational Certificate Distribution System using blockchain technology. By utilising a detailed investigation study, the authors have jotted down the most suitable options for planning, researching, implementing, developing, and testing this application. The study also indicates the limitations and constraints of blockchain technology in this domain.
