What is verification?
Someone, who can legitimately vouch for the authenticity of a file, completes an online form giving a seal of approval for that file when used in your ePortfolios.
By choosing a verifier with appropriate authority the artifacts in your ePortfolio will carry considerable weight as evidence. Recipients who receive your ePortfolio will recognise the authenticity of verified artifacts and can even make contact with the verifier if required.
