Hey Eric - great idea! Peer:peer credentialing is kind of like the bottoms up version of a qualification. I love this so much. Expanding on this idea - what if we could tie this into a system that captured the full breadth and depth of a person. LinkedIn is no good. Resumes don’t work. Everyone is totally unique and there is just no way our current systems can fully capture the complete picture of a person. What can a GPA from an elite university really tell you about a person? I’m imagining something like GitHub but for a person - a record of the things you’re passionate about, where you spend your creative energies, where you come from, your story, the things you’ve made, the communities you’re a part of, as well as your achievements. Credentials could be tied in and I think these peer to peer credentials could form a crucial part of this system
I've started working on that idea in the form of a "portfolio" template that would be hosted in Notion. Anyone could duplicate it (Notion has a free plan) and add their education, work experiences, volunteering + a gallery of projects they've worked on + a list of personal interests and accomplishments + a video to tell their story, etc. Any person a user has worked with could comment on a specific part of a project's scope to recommend a skill or attitude they appreciated
