What is the difference between a diploma and a degree certificate?
Many children probably don't know the difference between a degree certificate and a diploma, just like I used to. When looking for a job, I was asked to provide a degree certificate and a diploma, mistakenly thinking that a degree certificate is the same thing. Today I will show you the difference between the two certificates.

1. What are degree certificates and diplomas?

Graduation certificate: A student can be awarded a graduation certificate after registering as a student and completing all the courses arranged by the school. Its function is to prove your learning experience.

Degree certificate: a certificate issued to prove students' professional knowledge and technical level. That is the proof of your learning ability and academic level.

The relationship between degree and academic qualifications: a degree is not the same as academic qualifications. Those who have obtained a degree certificate but have no academic qualifications are still the original academic qualifications. China's diploma and degree certificate are separate. Some people can graduate, but they can't get a degree. However, Chinese universities are not qualified to issue degree certificates.

Second, what is the difference between the two certificates? Which is more important?

A degree certificate means you have a bachelor's degree. At present, colleges and universities implement the credit system, and a degree certificate can be issued after completing a certain number of credits. If the credits are not enough, the degree certificate will not be issued. To get a degree certificate, you must have a diploma, which means that a degree certificate is more weighty than a diploma!

From the perspective of learning gains:

The diploma only proves the time and process of a person's study, but the degree certificate is the recognition that this person has learned to a certain level. Therefore, the value of a degree certificate exceeds that of a diploma.

From the perspective of market recognition:

For people who work in government agencies, institutions or state-owned enterprises, dual certificates have more competitive advantages than certificates. But there is little difference between foreign-funded enterprises and private enterprises. The key is personal ability and professional background.

3. What are the advantages of having a degree certificate?

1. Examination for civil servants and institutions. Candidates with bachelor degree or above must have a degree certificate.

2. Having a degree certificate can increase the scope and probability of employment.

3. Some institutions must have a bachelor's degree in preparation!

4. Employees with bachelor's degree have more advantages and even play a decisive role in the evaluation of enterprise titles!

5. If most China students go abroad to study for graduate students, they can only study for preparatory courses without a degree certificate!

Summary: If you graduate smoothly but don't have enough credits, only the diploma has no degree certificate, then the degree certificate is more weighty than the diploma.
