What you'll prove

Varsity

What is the Mind & Wellbeing Department?

The Mind & Wellbeing Department groups the Powstik paths and outcomes on that subject. You build real work and get it checked.

Who is it for?

It is for anyone who wants to learn a subject by doing it. You can start at any level.

What costs money?

Nothing in a Department. Paths, outcomes and checks have no charge.

How does verification work?

A real person who knows your work signs in and checks each proof. You can never check your own proof. Your standing grows as more people check your work.

How standing works

Permanent and earned only from verified work. Never bought, applied for or handed out. Separate from the weekly team league.
