HEC Introduces New and Simplified Online Degree Attestation System
The Higher Education Commission (HEC) has completely transformed the degree attestation process by introducing a new digital system. This new system aims to make the degree verification process easier, faster, and more transparent for students. Now, students will no longer have to wait for long periods to get their documents verified.
The most significant feature of this new "e-Attestation" system is that applicants will no longer need to visit HEC offices in person. All stages can now be completed via the internet, which will significantly reduce students' time and travel expenses. This system is entirely paperless, meaning there will be no need for manual paperwork.
Under the new system, students can submit their applications on the HEC portal at any time of the day, 24 hours a day. This system not only makes document verification secure but also greatly reduces the chances of human error. After digital verification, students will be provided with attested copies of their degrees online.
According to the HEC, this step is part of promoting the "Digital Pakistan" vision in the country. It is a major convenience, especially for students living in remote areas, as they will no longer have to travel to HEC offices located in major cities. This will bring transparency to the system and eliminate corruption.
This new paperless system is now active, and students can submit their applications by visiting the HEC website. Educational experts have praised this decision, calling it a major transformation in the higher education sector that will benefit thousands of students every year.
