Sample Credentials
For this edition, we would like to share a marvelous resource on Russian sample credentials from the National Information Centre on Academic Recognition and Mobility (NIC ARaM) of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation.
This website includes much useful information (some of it in English), including information about the education system, quality assurance and accreditation, recognized higher education institutions, and a comprehensive list of diploma and qualification samples from the Soviet era until today.
This is a wonderful tool to assist you in ensuring that the documents you are examining match the appropriate template. For post-Soviet credentials, the NIC AraM includes full-color samples of the graduation credential, though Soviet era documents are typically in black and white. Russian credential templates have seen a number of changes over the last decade, so many of the post-Soviet credentials include samples from 1992-mid-2000s, 2007, 2012, and 2014 to correspond to those changes.
We have included a series of samples of the Диплом cпециалиста / Specialist Diploma for your library.
