Verified learning. Professional proof.
DES certificates will confirm when scouts, staff, and volunteers complete Academy material, pass the required assessment, and receive approval from Draft Elite Sport.
Later, certificates can appear inside user profiles, be downloaded as PDF, and include QR verification so clubs, partners, and DES leadership can confirm certificate status.

Certificate Rules
Certificate control protects DES.
Certificates must be controlled by DES. They should confirm Academy completion, but they should not be confused with employment, representation, FIFA agent status, or guaranteed football opportunities.
✅ Certificates are only valid when issued by Draft Elite Sport.
✅ Certificates can be suspended or revoked by DES leadership.
✅ A certificate does not guarantee employment, representation, or club access.
✅ Certificates confirm DES Academy completion only.
✅ Clubs and partners should verify certificates using the official DES domain.
Profile Integration
Certificates can live inside the user profile.
Later, a scout or staff member can log into DES and see their certificates inside their dashboard. They can view them, download them, and share verification links when required.
