CeCredential Features

How to Validate the CeCredential

A CeCredential can be validated online one of two ways:

1. 
   Credential VALIDATION PAGE: To ensure the Degree or credential information is still valid, we highly recommend you visit the School’s official website, Washington and Lee University Credential Validation webpage, to perform an additional validation.
   
   Enter the 12 digit CeDiD found in the upper corner of the CeCredential, along with the first two letters of the name as it appears on the document.
   
   
2. 
   DIGITAL SIGNATURE: All CeCredentials from Washington and Lee University are digitally signed by CeCredential Trust. When the document is viewed through Adobe Reader or Acrobat versions 9.0 or higher, it will reveal that a Digital Signature has been applied to the document.
   
   Adobe Reader and Acrobat use a blue ribbon across the top of the document to indicate document has not been tampered with, and is therefore authentic.
   
   

Attn Mac users: When viewing an official electronic credential from Washington and Lee University, the software utilizes Adobe’s secure certified PDF technology and therefore may only be viewed using the free Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat 9.0 or higher. The default Mac preview application will not display the document correctly.

Questions or Concerns

If you have further questions, or need additional help, please contact the Registrar’s Office. For all inquiries, please include the CeDiD number and the name of the graduate as it appears on the CeCredential.
