Verify a Saylor Academy course completion certificate
Your certificate is sent to you as a PDF file that is also available online. You, or anyone with the link, can save, print, attach, and share your certificate.
Sometimes, employers or educators will want to verify that your Saylor Academy certificate is authentic.
We'll use our model student Jane Doe's ESL001 certificate as an example.
There are three easy ways to verify Jane's certificate:
- Most basically, Jane's certificate can be found online at https://learn.saylor.org/pluginfile.php/1/tool_certificate/issues/1679639592/0746986089JD.pdf – Saylor Academy controls the "learn.saylor.org" domain and only Saylor Academy can post certificates to that domain.
- When viewing Jane's certificate online or as a downloaded PDF file, the Certificate ID is hyperlinked. Clicking that link brings you to the Verify certificates page on our website and automatically fills in the ID number. Clicking the Verify button will then display information about Jane Doe and her certificate.
Note that Jane's link looks like this: https://learn.saylor.org/admin/tool/certificate/index.php?code=0746986089JD
You can replace the part after "?code=" with your own Certificate ID to create a link to share with others. - As long as someone has Jane's Certificate ID, 0746986089JD, they can visit the Verify certificates page at https://learn.saylor.org/admin/tool/certificate/index.php, enter the ID number, and click the Verify button to display information confirming that Jane Doe earned her certificate on January 5th, 2023.
