My eQuals FAQs

My eQuals offers significant benefits to all users, students and graduates as well as employers, professional registration bodies and tertiary education providers. The benefits include:

• document portability – documents can be accessed from My eQuals 24/7 from anywhere in the world
• immediate access to certified digital documents, cutting the delays of manual production, processing and delivery
• secure credentials protected by My eQuals ensures the authenticity of documents for parties you choose to share your documents with
• faster outcomes as these portable, certified documents streamline administration and lead to faster decision making within institutions
• environmental sustainability and reduced cost – reduction in printing and postage costs leading to less impact on the environment
• increased control and security - you maintain control over who receives access to your documents and for how long.

My eQuals uses advanced, long-term cryptographic validity to maintain data confidentiality, data integrity, protection and user authentication. 

Documents downloaded from My eQuals and opened using Abode Acrobat Reader will display a blue ‘Certified’ ribbon at the top of the pdf. This shows the document is authentic and certified. Please note: Opening documents in anything other than Abode Acrobat Reader will not allow the document to be authenticated. If you print the digital document, the blue ribbon will not display and the document is no longer certified. This helps ensure its integrity. 

You can order two types of digital academic documents to have uploaded to My eQuals:

• Academic Records
• Completion Letters

Please note: This does not include study completed at institutions listed below. Please contact us to request hard copies of records for these institutions.
