Abstract
The Education sector is undergoing transformation-using technology. The virtual classrooms are replacing the traditional classrooms. The proposed model envisaged is student-centric, where the student has the choice to model his curriculum depending on the student interests and area to work and not follow the usual model, using credits from micro-credentials added per unit. The challenge is to use the features, benefits of Blockchain to introduce this new Education model technology to improve efficiency by reducing cost and improving accountability. The transformation in Education Framework can revolutionize the future Learning, teaching Industry to reduce cost and time. This revolution will also lead to improved chances for Learners to be employable. The Research paper proposes to use the Modified ADKAR Change Management Model to validate this Research study and will be a significant contribution to the research topic and the Theory known.
