It was confusing at the start but with the guidance give it became clear gradually. The verification certificate got to me really fast

Easy and understandable. But I have to pay fee to WES and to concerned University i.e. Chitkara University. Double the fee charged from me.

WES did a good job

WES did a good job, but I don’t recommend the qualification check for the verification. They had some internal problems and it took several weeks to get to the second level support to find a solution. Before that I only received unsuitable text snippets which was very annoying.

Really worst services

Really worst services, If you are looking for ECA, try other agencies, don't just rely on them..... They will take hell lot of time to get back to you and in case of emergency or short in time just do not rely on them

My experience with World Education…

My experience with World Education Services (WES) was generally positive. The application process was clear and easy to follow. While the document submission required careful attention to their guidelines, once everything was in order, the evaluation was completed in a reasonable timeframe. Overall, it was a professional and reliable service.

PhD Certificate Evaluation

I sent my PhD certificate to be evaluated from a renowned institution the University of Buea and it was assessed below standard i.e Masters(minimum) with a remark upon evaluation of my PhD thesis.

Ever since I have written a complaint and asked what procedures are required for my PhD thesis to be assessed by WES up till now I haven't gotten any feedback yet. This is three weeks and running.

Note: Part of my PhD thesis has been published in a renown journal.

I requested for my evaluation and immediately my school sent my documents, it took a week to receive a feedback. I expected it to delay but your speed was unmatched. Thanks you for your service. I will recommend you anytime because you deserve the best
