Ransford's Notes is built around practical learning and clear evidence. If a candidate shares a certificate, you can verify it and understand what it represents. No guesswork and no vague badges that mean whatever the marketing team felt like that week.
In my opinion, good verification should minimise data collection. You should only receive what you need to make a decision.
These are examples of the practical capabilities the courses are designed to evidence. They are written so that a hiring manager can understand them, but they still map to real frameworks.
