In an increasingly interconnected world, verifying academic credentials has never been more crucial. With rising international student mobility and the growing use of digital credentials, fraudulent documents pose significant challenges for educational institutions, credential evaluators, employers, and immigration authorities. Additionally, the rise of unregulated diploma mills and pathway providers, often falsely claiming connections to UK universities, further complicates this process. This session will provide vital insights into how document verification safeguards the integrity of the credential evaluation process. We will explore the challenges posed by fraudulent academic providers and demonstrate how Hedd, in collaboration with other HE sector agencies, is leading the way in transforming verification and document sharing. Through real-time data integration, fraud detection, and automation, Hedd enhances the efficiency and accuracy of credential evaluations, ultimately fostering global academic mobility. Attendees will engage in case studies, discussions, and live demonstrations to understand how the UK grants degree-awarding powers, issues secure documents, and upholds the credibility of qualifications in today's globalized academic environment.
