Education OS Certification

What it means to be Education OS compliant — and how systems prove they use the OS safely and correctly

Education OS Certification exists to ensure Education OS is used as a human-protective diagnostic standard, not as a weapon of control.

Certification is not about branding.
It is about correct implementation, evidence-based measurement, and safety.

This page defines the certification logic for schools, programs, organizations, and personal implementations.

What certification outputs

  • Certification status (Candidate / Compliant / Verified / Revoked)
  • Implementation checklist completion
  • Evidence requirements
  • Safety compliance (MCL gates)
  • Audit-ready OS score summaries

Why certification exists

Without certification, powerful frameworks are easily misused:

  • metrics become punishment tools
  • truth becomes unsafe
  • “optimization” replaces human dignity
  • ideology overrides reality

Education OS Certification prevents that by requiring:

  • clear boundaries
  • evidence-based scoring
  • transparent correction loops
  • human-protective safety rails

Certification levels

Level 1 — Candidate

A system that has adopted the OS language and begun implementing modules.

Requirements:

  • publishes the Education OS core links
  • uses OHME-e/t scorecards at least monthly
  • identifies one binding constraint and one failure loop
  • states a human-dignity policy (MCL baseline)

Level 2 — Compliant

A system that runs Education OS consistently and uses recovery modes properly.

Requirements:

  • DLT capability standards documented
  • OHME-e/t scoring done consistently
  • Collapse signatures used to classify failures
  • environment constraints assessed
  • recovery mode plans documented
  • MCL safety gates applied when scoring humans

Core modules:
DLT → /dlt/
OHME-e/t → /ohme-et/
Collapse Signatures → /collapse-signatures/
Environment Constraints → /environment-constraints/
MCL → /mcl/

Level 3 — Verified

A system that provides evidence, case runs, and demonstrates correction over time.

Requirements:

  • at least 3 months of OHME time-series evidence
  • at least 1 published runtime execution (case run)
  • measurable improvement in at least one binding constraint
  • proof of truth safety (feedback can be reported without punishment)
  • documented correction cycles

Level 4 — Revoked

Certification is revoked when a system uses Education OS for harm or coercion.

Triggers include:

  • using metrics to degrade or erase humans
  • suppressing truth and creating fear governance
  • using “system health” to justify cruelty
  • denying basic human dignity
  • falsifying data or manipulating scores

MCL reference → /mcl/

Certification rules (non-negotiables)

Education OS certification requires:

  1. Truth safety must be protected
  2. Human dignity is non-negotiable
  3. Scores are used for recovery planning, not punishment
  4. Evidence must support scoring
  5. Correction loops must be transparent
  6. Safety gates must exist for high-stakes decisions

Who certification is for

Education OS Certification can be applied to:

  • Schools and tuition programs
  • Companies and organizations
  • Communities and institutions
  • Family systems
  • Personal development systems

Education OS is scale-invariant.

Certification checklist (minimum compliant)

A certified system must have:

  • A stated system boundary
  • A defined goal function
  • OHME-e/t scoring rubric adopted
  • Monthly OHME scoring cadence
  • Failure loop classification method
  • Constraint diagnostics method
  • Recovery mode playbook
  • Safety policy aligned with MCL
  • Evidence logs for trends

OHME scoring rubric → /ohme-et-scoring/
Tools → /ohme-et-tools/
