The Higher Education Commission (HEC) on Monday launched an online degree verification system to facilitate students across the country.
The HEC, by launching the new verification system, has provided more simple access to the students to verify their degrees, instead of standing in queues outside the HEC offices, said an official of the HEC.
The students have to provide information about their educational degrees, religion, district and respective institution on verification form posted on the e-portal of the website, said the official.
Then the scan documents would be uploaded which will be scrutinised by the Commission and the students would be asked to deposit fee.
After this procedure, the HEC will set a meeting with the concerned persons in which the applicants would be required to provide a hard copy of their documents, adding, on the same day the verified degrees would be returned.
According to the official, if any person who cannot visit the HEC office personally, he could send documents through courier service.
Online degree verification system will save the time of the people, he added.
