Clear answers about IBQA
Who can apply to IBQA?
Education institutes, professional training providers, coaching and teaching centers, assessment providers, approved partner organizations and individual professionals may apply under the relevant route.
Does IBQA approval equal government recognition?
No. IBQA provides independent private quality assurance, assessment and certification services. Government recognition, statutory approval, licensing and degree-awarding authority are separate matters controlled by the relevant jurisdiction.
How can a certificate or institution be verified?
Use the public verification portal and enter the exact unique number printed on the document. The portal displays the current status and approved public record fields.
Can IBQA issue certificates for learners of an affiliated institution?
Certification arrangements depend on an approved written scope, verified learner data, program evidence and the selected service model. No institution may issue or represent IBQA credentials outside its written approval.
Does IBQA recognition make an honorary doctorate an earned PhD?
No. IBQA may independently review an awarding body's governance, documented criteria, recipient evidence and public representation for an honorary distinction. This does not convert an honorary title into an earned academic doctorate, establish academic equivalency, or replace statutory authority in the relevant jurisdiction.
