Viva
For admissions offices & employers

A credential you can actually check

When an applicant attaches a Viva credential, every figure on it was earned under live, voice-verified oral examination of their own submitted work. Not self-reported, not a certificate of attendance, and verifiable by you in seconds.

What it attests

Live oral defenses

The student answered adaptive questions about their own work, in their own voice, in real time. Ghostwriting and AI proxies cannot produce this record.

Voice-verified identity

Each session is matched against the student's enrolled voiceprint; inconsistent sessions are flagged, and flagged work never inflates a credential.

Account consistency

The percentage of oral accounts fully consistent with the submitted written work, across every examined session.

Evidence-backed skills

Skill tags carry an evidence count: how many independent examinations support each one.

Three ways to verify

1
Open the link

Every credential page is served live by Viva. If it loads and shows "Verified live", it is active and untampered. A revoked credential says so immediately.

2
Batch-check a pile of applications

Paste any number of credential links into the batch verifier. Each is checked against the signed record in parallel.

3
Call the API

GET /api/credentials/verify?id=<credential-id> returns validity, issue dates, and the SHA-256 signature as JSON.

Scoring bands, integrity checks, and the examination method are documented in the public Viva Assessment Standard, which credentials cite.
