The credentials we verify. And how far each one can be checked.

Checked against a public register. The body keeps its own register open to anyone, so we check the credential against it directly — the licence number, the name, the standing. This is the one route where we can genuinely say verified, and it is the strongest evidence we can hand you.

Checked by hand where the register is paid. A register exists, but it sits behind a paywall or a login with no open lookup. So a person on our team checks the credential against it directly — slower, but real. We tell you it was a manual check, never dress it up as an instant one.

Reviewed on the documents, and we say so. Some bodies publish no register we can search — including two of the largest in Nigerian healthcare. Here the claim rests on the certificate itself, reviewed by our team. We mark it as document review rather than imply a check we cannot make.
