FAQs

Evaluation questions.

What is a credential evaluation?

A credential evaluation reviews a degree, certification or other qualification issued by an international institution and states its local equivalent. It helps academic institutions, licensing boards and employers understand and recognise foreign credentials.

In what circumstances would I need my credentials evaluated?

Professionals often need an evaluation to meet regulatory licensing requirements, and international students may need one for university admission. Some visa and immigration processes also require it.

Who might need to have their credentials evaluated?

QuadraBay evaluates academic qualifications, professional qualifications and work experience for individuals, employers, universities and regulators.

How long does an evaluation take?

We aim to complete evaluations in the shortest time possible. Where the regulator or university requires original documents to be vetted, the evaluation may take slightly longer.

Need a recognition framework or a single evaluation?

Our evaluation experts will guide you to the right service.
