Built so a "verified" result actually means something
A verification page is only useful if the people relying on it, employers, registrars, admissions teams, can trust the answer it gives. That's the standard we hold this process to.
An independent verification partner
Certyvault isn't a training provider or an issuing body. We're a third party that training providers, universities, and certification bodies partner with so employers and admissions teams have one consistent place to check a credential, regardless of who issued it.
Each partner institution keeps ownership of its own records and ID format. Certyvault routes every lookup to the right partner registry and returns a live result.
Who we work with
Our partner network spans technical and vocational colleges, universities, and professional certification bodies. If your organization issues credentials and wants them verifiable through Certyvault, get in touch through our contact page.
What we check
Every lookup runs against the same set of checks, in the same order, every time.
Record exists
The certificate ID is matched against the issuing partner's own registry, not a static list that can go stale.
Current status
Revoked, expired, or superseded certificates are flagged rather than shown as simply "found."
Correct attribution
The name, course, and issue date shown come directly from the original record, with no manual edits along the way.
Why we don't just show a PDF
A downloadable certificate can be edited, forwarded, or copied indefinitely. It can't tell a viewer whether it's still valid today. A live lookup can, which is why the verification result, not the certificate image, is the thing we ask people to trust.
If a credential is later revoked, the next lookup reflects that immediately, without needing to track down every copy of the original document.
Privacy by default
Anyone checking a certificate only needs the ID, not the certificate holder's date of birth, contact details, or other personal data. Verification results are limited to what's relevant to confirming authenticity.
Lookups aren't tied to an account, so people verifying a credential don't need to register or hand over information of their own.
