Ordering Verification of Someone Else’s ASCP BOC Credential(s)

To be used by employers, recruiters, background search firms, and other third parties

  • You must enter details specific to the credential holder for whom you are purchasing verification of American Society for Clinical Pathology Board of Certification (ASCP BOC) credential(s).
  • Real-time on-screen results are available at the time the order is placed.

Digital Badges

In early 2026, the ASCP BOC will launch digital badging through Credly, a trusted provider that increases the visibility of ASCP BOC credential holders by securely allowing professionals to showcase and share their credentials. See Using Digital Badges to Verify ASCP BOC Credentials for details.

While digital badges are an exciting new option for providing primary source verification of ASCP BOC credentials, the current online order process for primary source verification (PSV) of ASCP BOC credentials remains available.
