Certificates
From the School of Continuing Education, we can issue two types of certificates:
- The Personal Academic Certificate (PAC), which details your academic record: number of credits/hours, grades, academic year, etc.
- The Syllabus Certificate, which includes the content of the subjects/modules in your academic record. Some countries require this document to legalize your continuing education qualification (master’s, diploma, or specialization course).
To request a certificate, follow the procedure below:
1. STUDENT: Submit your certificate request. You will receive an automatic email response with a ticket number. It is VERY IMPORTANT that you keep this email to track your request (especially if you submitted it without a NIU).
2. SCHOOL: We will review your academic record. If everything is in order, we will send you an email with instructions on how to pay the corresponding fees.
IMPORTANT: Do not make any payment until we instruct you to do so.
The current fees for issuing certificates are:
- Personal Academic Certificate: €27.27
- Syllabus Certificate: €30
If we detect any issues (unpaid fees, missing grades, missing access documentation, etc.), we will contact you to resolve them.
