Verifiable certificates
Verify a certificate,
trust the credential
African Intelligence certificates are tamper-evident and verifiable online — so anyone can confirm a credential is genuine in seconds. Here’s what that means and how verification works.
- Tamper-evident
- Checkable by anyone
- On-chain verifiable
What they are
Credentials that prove themselves
A verifiable certificate is more than a PDF. When an institution issues one through African Intelligence, it carries a unique ID and a tamper-evident, on-chain record of its details. That record is what lets anyone — an employer, a university, a partner — confirm the certificate is real without taking anyone’s word for it.
For learners, it means their achievement is trusted anywhere. For institutions, it means your credentials hold their value beyond your own walls.
“Genuine, issued by your institution, and confirmed in seconds — not a claim, but a checkable fact.”
How a verifiable credential should feel
Why it matters
The value of a verifiable credential
Paper certificates can be lost, copied or faked, and a scan tells you nothing about authenticity. Verifiable certificates fix that.
Tamper-evident
Each certificate is issued with a cryptographic, on-chain record. If a single detail were altered, verification would no longer match — so a genuine certificate proves itself.
Instantly checkable
No phone calls, no waiting on an office to reply. Anyone with the certificate ID or link can confirm it online in seconds, at any time.
Trusted by employers
Recruiters and partners can independently confirm a credential is real and see its verified details — so your learners’ achievements carry weight beyond your institution.
Issued by your institution
Verification shows exactly which institution issued the certificate, for which learner and which course — a clear, trusted chain of authorship.
How it works
Verifying a certificate in three steps
From issue to independent check — a simple, trusted chain anyone can follow.
Your institution issues it
When a learner completes a course or exam, the institution issues a verifiable certificate with a unique ID and a tamper-evident, on-chain record of its details.
The learner shares it
The learner receives the certificate along with its ID and verification link, and can share that link with an employer, university or anyone who needs to check it.
Anyone verifies it online
Opening the verification link confirms the certificate was genuinely issued and shows its verified details — the learner’s name, course and issuing institution.
Received a certificate to check? Open the verification link on it, or enter its certificate ID, and verification will confirm the details instantly.
Built for trust
Credentials your learners can carry anywhere
When a certificate proves its own authenticity, everyone wins: learners are believed, employers can check in seconds, and your institution’s name stands behind a credential that can’t be quietly faked.
Common questions
Certificate verification FAQ
How do I verify a certificate?+
Open the verification link on the certificate, or enter its unique certificate ID. Verification instantly confirms whether the certificate was genuinely issued and shows its verified details — the learner’s name, the course and the issuing institution. Anyone can do this; you don’t need an account.
What makes these certificates tamper-proof?+
Each certificate is issued with a cryptographic record anchored on-chain. Verification checks the certificate against that record, so any change to the details would fail to match. In practice, a genuine certificate proves itself and a forged or altered one cannot.
Can employers check them?+
Yes — that’s the point. Employers, recruiters and partner institutions can independently verify a certificate online using its ID or link, without contacting your institution. They see the verified details and confirmation that it was genuinely issued.
Are they blockchain-based?+
Yes. African Intelligence certificates are tamper-evident and on-chain verifiable — a cryptographic record lets anyone confirm authenticity independently. You don’t need to understand the technology to use them: you just open the link or enter the ID and verification does the rest.
