About certificate verification
Someone has shared an ElevityHub certificate with you and you have opened its verify link. This page explains what the result tells you, and what it does not.
What a verified certificate means
When the page says Certificate verified, the certificate ID matches a real record in ElevityHub. The certificate was issued by the organisation shown under "Issued by", on the date shown, for the course shown.
What it does not prove
- The holder's identity. The check confirms the certificate, not the person showing it to you. If that matters, check their ID separately.
- Anything beyond completing the course. It does not say anything about the person's skills, work or other qualifications.
How to read the status
- Active: the certificate is genuine and currently valid.
- Expiring soon: genuine and valid today, but its validity ends soon. The end date is shown on the page.
- Expired: genuine, but past its validity date. The person may need to do a refresher course.
- Revoked: withdrawn by the organisation that issued it. Treat it as not valid.
- Invalid: no certificate exists with this ID. Check that the ID was typed correctly, or open the link from the certificate again.
Details look wrong?
If a name, course or date looks wrong, contact the organisation that issued the certificate (named under "Issued by"). They own the record and can correct it or issue a new certificate. ElevityHub cannot change their records.
