Can you send my certificate or transcript to NCA-FLSC (Federation of Law Societies of Canada, National Committee on Accreditation) ?
If you require your degree documents to be assessed by NCA-FLSC, first of all you need to apply directly to NCA-FLSC and pay the required fees.
If you started your course in 2002 or afterwards, you can then provide NCA-FLSC with access to your degree documents electronically. When you are instructed by NCA-FLSC to provide your degree documents, please follow these instructions:
- Go to the Secure Documents website (Verify), click "student and graduate login", and log in with your university login details. These will still work beyond completion on this site, however, you must enter your email address in the format abc123@alumni.bham.ac.uk. If you no longer have your login details, or you have any problems logging in, please log a call with our IT Service Desk to retrieve or reset your details.
- Click on "View Secure Documents"
- Click on the menu button (grey button with three lines on) next to the degree that NCA-FLSC are assessing. Then click on "eCertificate" or "eTranscript". The document should then appear on the screen. Check that it appears as you are expecting it to, then click on the cross on the top-right of the document to close it. If anything does not look correct, or you cannot get the document to appear, please contact us using the “contact us” link at the bottom of this page, and do not proceed further with these instructions until you have received a reply from us.
- Repeat step 3 if you are sharing more than one document (for example, you are sharing both a certificate and a transcript, or if you have more than one degree with us.)
- Once you are happy with all the documents, click on "connections", at the top centre of the page.
- Click on "add connection".
- Enter "NCA" as the first name, last name and company, and transcripts@flsc.ca as the email address (please be very careful to enter the email address correctly, with no spaces or extra characters before or after it, or the connection will fail). Enter an expiry date at least 4 weeks into the future.
- On the right of the page, it will show all the degree documents you have available to share, and by default, it will share all of them. Untick any that you do not wish to share with NCA-FLSC.
- Click "send".
After you click "send", NCA-FLSC will receive an automated email from us, notifying them that they can view your degree documents in their account. They will be accessible to NCA-FLSC until the expiry date you specified.
Please note this method of sharing degree documents can only be used for courses started in 2002 or later. If you started a course before 2002 and require it to be evaluated by NCA-FLSC, please email tsadocuments@contacts.bham.ac.uk for further help.
If you studied at University College Birmingham (UCB), and received a degree which was accredited by the University of Birmingham, please email tsadocuments@contacts.bham.ac.uk for further help.
If you studied Dentistry, Dental Hygiene and Therapy, Education, or a Presessional English programme please also see the special arrangements detailed at: How do I get a copy of my transcript?
