Flowchart entitled “How the application works” for requesting a diploma. The “applicant” submits an application, whereupon a “form” is created and a notification of receipt is sent. This is followed by a decision point: “Does the school still exist?”. If “Yes,” the application is forwarded to the “school.” If “No,” it is forwarded to the “school administration office.” The responsible office processes the application. Result: If successful (green), the “final certificate is delivered.” If there are problems (red), the person receives a negative decision or a query.
