Apply for Your eCAV: The Easy and Convenient Way

What is eCAV?

eCAV stands for Electronic Certification, Authentication, and Verification. It is an online service by CHED designed to officially and securely verify higher education academic records. Traditionally, getting your academic documents authenticated was a manual and often time-consuming process involving physical submissions, long queues, and multiple visits to offices. With eCAV, all of this can now be done online — saving you both time and effort.
