Verifying academic credentials is one of the most common — and most important — verification use cases for employers. A candidate's degree, diploma or transcript often determines hiring eligibility, compensation and role assignment.
The process begins with submission: the employer submits the credential through GlobalDoc Verify, providing the document and relevant metadata such as the awarding institution and issue date.
Automated analysis assesses the document's structure and integrity. Where issuer confirmation is available, we seek it directly from the awarding institution. Human expert review is applied where needed.
When issuer confirmation is unavailable, the report clearly states that an assessment was performed rather than claiming absolute authenticity. This honesty is essential — it allows employers to weigh the verification appropriately in their decision-making.
