    Award verification

    What is award verification?

    Award verification is an instant, online verification tool that allows graduates and their potential employers to verify their La Trobe University qualification.

    What information does award verification provide?

    The award verification process provides the following information:

    • Course title studied
    • Completion date
    • Date the award was conferred
    • Course start date

    Note: The award verification process does not provide a full transcript of results.

    What information do you need to search the award verification database?

    To search the La Trobe University award verification database, you will need the graduate's:

    • First given name
    • Family name when studying
    • Date of birth

    or

    • The graduate's student ID number

    Why can't I find the graduate in the database?

    If you can’t find the graduate, it could be that:

    • They have successfully completed their course but have not yet been conferred to their award
    • Their name has changed since graduating
    • Your spelling or formatting of their name does not match ours
    • Award was conferred greater than 10 years ago. If so, student consent is required. Access the Verification Consent form [PDF 179KB] and instructions for Third-Party education requests.
