Why higher education

Verifiable credentials your programs can launch this semester

Universities and colleges use Sertifier to replace paper certificates and manual PDFs with secure, verifiable digital credentials. Programs connect their LMS or SIS, set completion rules, and Sertifier automatically issues, shares, and verifies certificates, badges, and micro-credentials, while staying FERPA-aligned.

Modernize recognition

Issue stackable micro-credentials and academic certificates students are proud to share on LinkedIn.

Cut administrative load

Automate issuing from Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, or your SIS. No spreadsheets, no manual PDFs.

Protect student data

FERPA alignment, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and US/EU data residency built in.
