The Higher Education Commission (HEC) is set to highlight its new Online and Paperless Degree Attestation System (DAS) during an exclusive session of HEC’s Edu TV initiative. The session is scheduled for September 24, 2026, at 3:00 PM and will focus on how the digital system is changing the process of degree attestation by making it simpler, faster and fully paperless. The session will feature Dr. Amjad Hussain, Director General (A&A) at HEC, as the guest speaker, who will discuss the system and explain how students and degree holders can benefit from the digitized attestation process.
The new Degree Attestation System represents HEC’s continued move toward digitizing services related to higher education and reducing reliance on physical documentation. Degree attestation has traditionally involved document submission and verification procedures that could require applicants to manage physical paperwork and make arrangements for in-person processing. Through the online and paperless system, HEC is seeking to provide a more streamlined digital mechanism for applicants to submit and process their degree attestation requests. The system is designed around online processing, allowing applicants to access the service digitally rather than depending on conventional paper-based procedures.
The upcoming Edu TV session will provide an opportunity for students, graduates and other stakeholders to learn more about the system directly from an HEC official. Dr. Amjad Hussain is expected to explain the key features of the Online and Paperless Degree Attestation System and provide information about how the digital process works. The session is being promoted through HEC’s e-Kachehri platform, which is intended to provide a channel for people to ask questions and connect with HEC officials regarding education-related services. The session will also allow viewers to better understand the changes introduced through the digital attestation mechanism.
The session will be broadcast live through HEC Edu TV, with viewers able to access it through the official Edu TV platform. HEC has increasingly been shifting public-facing higher education services toward digital platforms as part of broader efforts to improve accessibility and reduce administrative requirements. The introduction of a paperless degree attestation process is part of this wider digitization of HEC services. The September 24 session is expected to provide further details about the system, its procedures and the way applicants can use the new digital mechanism for degree attestation.
