Credential fraud–including the use of fake degrees, unverified certifications, and exaggerated qualifications–has become a serious concern for employers worldwide. The increasing prevalence of unregulated online learning platforms and for-profit colleges with misleading marketing tactics has further blurred the line between legitimate and fraudulent credentials. Recognizing this fraud, the Education 2.0 Conference aims to promote dialogue around institutional accountability, robust verification frameworks, and increased awareness among students and employers alike.
The conference will explore how these deceptive practices not only mislead hiring managers but also exploit vulnerable students, many of whom fall prey to diploma mills that promise fast-tracked yet illegitimate credentials. Experts at the event will emphasize the importance of thorough institutional vetting and the need to empower job seekers with the tools to distinguish credible programs from deceptive ones.
Sai Narula, Delegate Manager of the event, noted, “We’re witnessing a paradigm shift in how qualifications are perceived and verified. With credential fraud on the rise, it’s no longer just an HR challenge–it’s an educational crisis. Our goal with this conference is to unite stakeholders from academia and industry to co-create secure and scalable verification frameworks. Restoring trust in education begins with accountability, and we’re proud to be leading this global conversation. As fraudulent practices evolve, so too must the systems that protect against them–and this event is poised to lead that evolution.”
Beyond credential fraud, the education summit will continue to address a wide range of timely topics, including redefining student success, bridging the skills gap, empowering educators, and integrating emerging technologies into the classroom. From inclusive learning models to future-ready skills and institutional resilience, the conference will serve as a dynamic space where thought leaders exchange ideas to shape the future of education.
