What are Digital Diplomas?

Bellevue College will implement a new service for students in 2019. Students earning a degree or certificate beginning with spring quarter 2019 will receive a digital diploma in addition to a paper diploma. The college is also collecting information on student preference if offered a choice of one type of diploma.

This is an example of what a digital diploma looks like:

The digital diploma can be claimed by the graduate and shared if desired to social network platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook.

The college is considering offering digital diplomas to all graduates along with an option to order a printed diploma for a nominal fee. (This does not impact diplomas for the winter 2019 or spring 2019 graduates.)
