Professional education curricula face a fundamental infrastructure problem: while comprehensively documented, they lack systematic queryability. This presentation introduces a three-layer architecture using graph databases as the source of truth for curriculum structure, supported by vector databases for content retrieval and the Model Context Protocol for stakeholder interfaces.
A curriculum knowledge graph that turns programme documentation into queryable infrastructure. Curriculum structure, learning outcomes, assessment alignment, and regulatory standards are modelled as a graph staff can interrogate in plain language — turning quality-assurance and compliance checks that take weeks into ones that take minutes.

Professional curricula are extensively documented but not systematically queryable, creating artificial information scarcity that makes compliance reporting and quality assurance labour-intensive. This essay proposes a three-layer architecture — graph databases as the source of truth for curriculum structure, vector databases for semantic content retrieval, and a Model Context Protocol layer for stakeholder access — that transforms documentation into operational infrastructure. The architecture incorporates temporal versioning for longitudinal evidence, role-based access controls for multi-stakeholder environments, and internal quality audit against institutional policy alongside external regulatory compliance, enabling verification in hours rather than weeks.
