How verification works
Three steps, and no one to call
Verification is free and needs no account. The holder does not have to be asked, and nothing is sent to them.
- Step 01
Find the ID
Every certificate prints its ID, such as GB-2026-0004, and a QR code that carries the same thing.

Questions
Checking a certificate
What a hiring manager or an admissions office usually asks first.
Does it cost anything, or need an account?
No. Verification is free and open to anyone, with no account and no login.
Where do I find the ID?
It is printed on the certificate, in the form GB-2026-0004, and carried by the QR code on it. Scanning the code opens the record directly.
What if no record is found?
Check the ID for typos first: the letters at the start name the belt, as in WB, YB, GB or BB. If it still does not match, no SigmaForge certificate carries that ID. Contact us if you think that is wrong.
Is the holder told that I checked?
No. Looking up a record sends nothing to the holder.
Sample certificate. Each one carries its own ID, in the form WB-2026-0007.
