How do you verify a course certificate online?
Open the issuer’s sharing link and compare the recipient, course, date and status with the document. A QR code leads to a verification page, so check the destination domain as well.
Compare the details on the issuer’s page
A PDF is useful to save and send. To verify the credential, open the link associated with the certificate. Check that the page belongs to the correct issuer and that the course and date match. If the page only shows an image, ask the issuer how verification works.
Try the link as a recipient
In the Digitalakademin learning portal, the holder chooses whether an issued certificate has a public sharing link. Open the link in a private window before adding it to a job application. A sign-in requirement may indicate that the certificate is still private.
Check whether the document was issued
An unissued certificate shows the document’s design and fields. Digitalakademin marks unissued documents “Not issued”. Check the displayed status before treating the document as an issued credential.
