Secondary Qualifications |
South African Matric (Grade 12) and Senior Certificate qualifications are verified via state organizations. Of real value is the fact that MIE and UMALUSI have entered into a formal agreement for the supply, according to strict service levels, of verification information for endorsed matric certificates. This agreement goes a long way towards ensuring high levels of accuracy and fast verification turnaround times for a very high percentage of matric results. However, only data from 1992 is available at Umalusi and other secondary qualifications have to be verified at the various Provincial Departments of Education.

Tertiary Qualifications |
South African Tertiary qualifications (degrees, certificates and diplomas) are verified via the National Qualifications Register (NQR®), which is owned and operated by MIE, and also directly via the institutions concerned, if they have not already subscribed to the NQR®.
