About Emitcert
Emitcert is a service for issuing verifiable certificates and diplomas. An organisation designs its certificate and grants it to the people who earned it; each of them receives a verification link and a printable copy, which an employer or another institution can verify years later without contacting the issuer.
Who it serves
Schools and colleges, universities, online academies, training centres, and companies that certify their own staff: any organisation that grants credentials and needs them to be trusted.
How a certificate is verified
Every certificate has its own code, printed on the document and encoded in its QR code. The code opens a public page stating who granted the certificate, to whom, for what and when, and whether it remains in force. When the organisation withdraws a certificate, or its validity expires, that page reflects the change immediately.
The text of each certificate is signed with a key belonging to the organisation that granted it. The organisation's public key is published, so a verifier can check the signature independently with any Ed25519 implementation, without relying on our page. The same certificate is also available as an Open Badges 3.0 credential for systems that process them.
Privacy and trust
A verification page shows a person's name, so it carries no advertising, loads no third-party content and is excluded from search engines. No account is required to verify a certificate, and each organisation's records are kept separate from those of every other.
Contact
Organisations already using Emitcert contact us from their client area. Security reports should be sent to security@emitcert.com. Emitcert is a service of Alcitron: payments made through PayPal show that name.
