Frequently asked

Institutional questions, answered.

Something not listed? Contact our institutions team.

Who can apply?

Accredited Cameroonian institutions — universities, GCE / OBC exam boards, ministry-recognised secondary schools, teacher-training colleges, professional institutes. Activation requires verifiable ministry accreditation.

How long does onboarding take?

Typical timeline is 5 business days from application to portal activation. Complex cases (newly accredited institutions, mergers, name changes) can take up to 10 business days while we verify with the ministry.

Is onboarding free?

Yes — onboarding and portal access are free for accredited Cameroonian institutions during the network rollout. Requesters (universities abroad, embassies, employers, evaluators) pay per verification request.

What documents are required?

An accreditation reference (decree / arrêté number), official institution contact details and a named registrar. We may request a signed letter on institutional letterhead during compliance review.

How are institutions verified?

VeriCam compliance officers cross-check the accreditation reference against ministry registries, then contact the institution through its official published channels — never the channel given on the application — to confirm the registrar's identity.

Who receives the verification requests?

Only the registrar staff your institution authorises. Each authorised user has role-scoped permissions; every response is audit-logged with actor identity and timestamp.
