My university and I are pretty interested, but I have a couple of questions:

1.- First, how can we join to your network?  
2.- Is it possible someones can bring to us support during the implementation of Blockcerts?  
3.- What are the costs for issuing certificates?  
4.- And, finally, this can be configurable by ourselves to create accounts?

Hi Mario,

Here are some answers to help clarify:

**1. First, how can we join to your network?**  
Blockcerts isn’t a network, but rather a set of code libraries for issuing and verifying digital records. The goal is for these to operate as a standard to increase for using any documented blockchain.

**2. Is it possible someones can bring to us support during the implementation of Blockcerts?**  
The code is fully documented, so any experienced developer should be able to use the libraries to build a system. There is no dedicated support, just volunteers of the community here.

**3. What are the costs for issuing certificates?**  
This will depend on choice of blockchain. Issuing in batches is a mechanism that helps to keep costs down.

**4. And, finally, this can be configurable by ourselves to create accounts?**.  
Blockcerts is simply code libraries. The system you create with them would have accounts.

[LearningMachine.com](http://learningmachine.com) is an example of a company that has used blockcerts to build a commercial product. I hope this helps!
