01
Enrollment and payment
A learner needs a signed-in account and a valid paid enrollment or organization seat before certificate-track access opens.
Certificate readiness
Certificates should be earned through a system people can trust.
TCAA separates public learning from verified certification. The first paid pathway now has a controlled launch structure: secure enrollment, learner-only access, final assessment, capstone review, admin approval, and public certificate verification.
Current status
The Executive Change Architecture Certification is prepared as a paid certification pathway. Learners must sign in, complete the course, pass the final assessment, submit the capstone portfolio, and pass admin review before a certificate is issued.

What has to happen before a paid certificate is issued.
02
Course access
Lessons, materials, notes, bookmarks, and progress are connected to the correct learner account.
03
Final assessment
The certification pathway uses a published final assessment with a defined pass threshold, limited attempts, and server-side scoring.
04
Capstone portfolio
Learners submit practical work against an approved rubric so the certificate reflects applied judgment, not only quiz completion.
05
Admin review
A reviewer confirms completion evidence and approves or rejects certificate issue before any credential is created.
06
Certificate generation
Certificate ID, learner name, course title, issue date, and status come from protected server-side records.
07
Public verification
Visitors can verify a certificate code without seeing private learner, payment, or admin data. Open verifier.
08
Corrections and revocation
Name corrections, mistaken issue, misconduct, expiry, and revoked certificates remain admin-controlled.
Plain boundary
Free records are useful. Paid certificates must be earned and verified.
Free learning records are for personal evidence and orientation. They are not paid certificates, accreditation, university credit, or employment guarantees. Paid TCAA certificates require the controlled certification pathway: enrollment, completion, assessment, capstone review, admin approval, and verification.
