Service Overview
A confirmation of a candidate's educational credentials, conducted by a verification agent who contacts the issuing institution's registrar, administrative office, or records department directly.
What's checked?
Whether the candidate obtained the stated diploma, degree, or certificate, along with details such as the institution attended, credential obtained, and graduation date. Depending on the institution's disclosure policies, program of study and attendance dates may also be confirmed. Data available varies from one institution to another.
How does it work?
Information is obtained directly from the institution's official records. The process is conducted with the candidate's consent and in accordance with applicable privacy regulations.
When to use it?
Built for confirming that a candidate holds the educational qualifications required for the role, helping prevent credential misrepresentation and providing assurance that academic credentials were legitimately earned.
What to know before interpreting results
- Verification relies on the information provided by the candidate (program name, institution, etc.). An error in these details can prevent validation, even if the credential is genuine.
- Diplomas from international institutions are more complex to verify (differences in education systems, procedures, and language), and successful international validations remain less common.
- An invalidation does not mean the diploma doesn't exist. It simply means Trustii was unable to confirm it with the information available. In this case, it's recommended to review the details with the candidate rather than draw a hasty conclusion.
