Unified digital identity systems can bring many benefits to higher education, according to experts. APSCHE Vice-Chairperson said that systems like APAAR and SAMARTH are helping improve transparency, efficiency, and portability for students and institutions.
These digital platforms allow students’ academic records, certificates, and progress to be easily stored and accessed online. This makes it simpler for students to move between colleges or universities without losing important information. It also helps universities and colleges maintain accurate records and reduce paperwork.
Experts say that these systems can improve fairness in education by making processes more transparent and reducing errors or delays in verifying student information. They also make it easier for teachers and administrators to track progress and provide better support.
Overall, unified digital identity systems like APAAR and SAMARTH are seen as important tools for modernising higher education, making it more efficient, student-friendly, and transparent.
