What the certificate fee covers
- An electronic training completion certificate issued in the name of the Arab Platform for Professional Studies (ARPS), showing you passed the program's assessments under the route policy. It is not a university degree or professional licence, and not an endorsement by any reference organization.
- Every certificate carries a unique verification code that anyone can check on the verification page, no account needed.
- Programs whose route includes a transcript (such as Short Diplomas and the Professional Mini-Master) come with a record of each subject or unit result and the final assessment, as a web page and a PDF with a verification link.
