Answer:
An educational certificate can be verified online either by using government run websites to research the school, or by using third party websites to verify the certificate. The federal trade commission recommends checking if the school is accredited by a large national accrediting agency. This can be done through the Database of Accredited Post secondary Institutions and Programs (https://ope.ed.gov/dapip/#/home). However, some accrediting agencies can be fake. The legitimacy of an accrediting agency can be checked here: https://www.chea.org/. Another method to verify an educational certificate online is to use a third party website. There are several third party sites that verify the enrollment and graduation of students both at the secondary and post secondary level. These websites verify certificates immediately and can detect fraud as well as reduce risks to reputation.
