Claim Node

This shape is used for validation purposes, in case the range of a property is a Claim (superclass). A Claim Node is either a Learning Achievement Shape, a Learning Activity Shape, a Learning Assessment Shape, a Learning Entitlement Shape, and rarely it can be a Claim Type Node Shape, that is a Claim where the extra restriction of type property being mandatory is imposed. It is strongly recommended to use the subclasses of the Claim (e.g Learning Achievement, Learning Activity, Learning Assessment, Learning Entitlement) and only use the Claim superclass in the rare occasion when the claim provided is not covered by the existing subclasses. In such case, the node shape used for validation of the Claim is the Claim Type Node Shape, where it is mandatory to provide type of the claim using a controlled list.


Claim Type Node

This shape does not apply on a class. This shape checks if a node is a Claim (when used directly and not via one of its subclasses), having type as a mandatory property.
