Award Verification

The Academic Registry is responsible for the verification of awards. Verification requests are often received from potential employers or government organisations in the form of a reference request, and are handled promptly and confidentially.
Reference requests from employers and organisations

Award verification is most often requested by potential employers, recruitment agencies, or government organisations who need to confirm that a former student holds a genuine qualification from Rhodes Institute of Professional Studies.

Requests are submitted as a reference request to the Academic Registry, which manages verification on behalf of the Institute.
