I disagree, all the institution needs to do is send a letter to the institution, remember the Toronto case?

thesicilian:
It is better to have a laminated certificate than one that is torn, rat-eaten, oil stained or dirty. I laminated all my certs and they're still a good as new today, and mind you, no employer has ever rejected them.

In the first place original certs are even produced on a need to see basis, you don't have to show them to every interviewer unless specifically requested for

kushma:

MsBella:

possibilita:
Lamination of certificates makes it look fake instead buy a plastic envelop and store the certification inside

Welber:
Laminated ORIGINAL certificates can not be NOTARIZED
If you intend using your certificate outside the country of origin, then do NOT laminate your certificate

About employees (in nigeria) not accepting laminated certificate because of ingenuity. I don't know when that started, but I'm aware employees can request a verification from the certifying body.

If you must laminate, don't laminate from a quack who would end up ruining your certificate right before your eyes!

Provie:
Serious threats & potential mutilators of ur certificate surround u left and right; serious-minded potential employers come once in a while. Laminate ur certificate and protect it. Reputable employers verify ur certificate from d issuing authority/institution even without ur knowledge. I rest my case.

I learnt not to laminate my documents. You can keep all in a safe bag or nylon bag.

I laminated my WAEC certificate & almos missed a job cos they kept sending for the document Had to go to WAEC office
