Certified Translation for WES (USA and Canada): A Comprehensive Guide

Why is Certified Translation Important for WES?

WES’s credential evaluation reports are used by educational institutions, employers, licencing boards, and immigration authorities in the U.S. and Canada. The evaluation helps these entities understand the equivalency of foreign degrees and diplomas to their respective local standards. However, if the academic documents are in a foreign language, the accuracy of the evaluation depends on the accuracy of the translation.

Inaccurate or uncertified translations can result in delays, rejections, or incorrect evaluations, which can severely impact an applicant’s opportunities for education, employment, or immigration. Certified translations ensure that WES evaluators have an accurate and reliable version of the original documents in the required language.
