Question 1

Are Drishti certificates real and recognised?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every certificate has a public verification URL that confirms the student, skill, date and unique signature. Recognised by partner schools and colleges, and accepted in IIT/NIT application personal statements as evidence of practical skill.

Question 2

Can certificates be faked or copied?

Accepted Answer

No. Certificates are tamper-evident — any change invalidates the signature on the public verification page. Colleges and recruiters can verify in one click without contacting us.

Question 3

What appears on a Drishti certificate?

Accepted Answer

Student name, school (if linked), skill or project name, level, date earned, mentor (if reviewed) and a unique verification URL. Optional QR code for offline verification on printed copies.

Question 4

How do the leaderboards work?

Accepted Answer

Daily-refreshed rankings by total XP, projects shipped and active streak — split across school, city and national levels. Multiple categories (robotics, AI, future skills) so different strengths get spotlighted, not just one type of learner.

Question 5

Won't leaderboards stress out my child?

Accepted Answer

We design for healthy competition. Tiers (Bronze → Diamond), weekly resets, 'most improved' awards and category-specific boards mean every student has a winnable path — newcomers aren't crushed by veterans.

Question 6

Can schools publish their leaderboard standing externally?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Schools get an embeddable widget and shareable URL for their leaderboard rank — a strong differentiator for admissions marketing and parent WhatsApp groups.

Question 7

Do certificates work for international universities?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The public verification URL works globally, and certificates include ISO-aligned skill tags that map to international frameworks. Several alumni have used Drishti certs in Common App and UK UCAS submissions.
