FAQs & Troubleshooting
Q: How often are the terms in this glossary updated?
A: The glossary is updated quarterly by the platform administration team to reflect new features, integrations, and terminology introduced in system releases.

A: The Trust Ledger starts at a perfect score and gets dynamically adjusted based on verification checks, proctoring flags, and academic record validation results.
Q: Can students request definitions for new portal terms?
A: Yes. Submit a suggestion via the **Feedback** form or raise a ticket at the **Support** desk to request a term addition to the glossary.
