Checking a certificate

What is this page for?

It lets anyone confirm that a training certificate issued by P3 Safety Solutions is real, and whether it is still current. Employers, general contractors, inspectors, HR teams, and students can all use it. It is free and needs no login.

How do I verify a certificate?

Go to the verification page and enter the certificate number printed on the certificate or wallet card, for example P3-1A2B3C4D. You will see the result right away: the holder, the course, the dates, and whether it is valid.

No number? Search by the student's name. To narrow a long list, add a company or course under "Show Advanced Filters." Name and filter searches show the most recent 15 matches.

I scanned a QR code on a certificate. Am I in the right place?

Yes, if your browser's address bar shows verify.p3safetysolutions.com. The QR code on every P3 certificate and wallet card opens that certificate's record here. If a QR code took you to any other address, that certificate did not come from us.

Can I check that a certificate belongs to the person showing it to me?

Yes. Enter the certificate number and the person's name, then search. The result tells you whether the name you typed matches the certificate holder. Capital letters, accents, and punctuation do not matter, and a last name alone is enough.

The page confirms the training record, not who is standing in front of you, so check photo ID the way you normally would.

Can I keep a record of the check?

Yes. Every certificate result has a Print button, which prints the result with the date and time it was verified, and a Copy link button. The link runs the same check again whenever it is opened, so it always shows the current status.

Understanding the result

What do Valid, Expired, Revoked, and Pending mean?
  • Valid The certificate is authentic and within its validity period.
  • Expired The certificate is authentic, but it is past its expiration date. The holder needs to complete the course again to have a current certificate.
  • Revoked P3 Safety Solutions withdrew the certificate, and it is no longer valid.
  • Pending The number was assigned when the student checked in, but the class is not finished yet. It becomes verifiable once the class is completed.
Why does a certificate say "No expiration date"?

Some courses do not carry an expiration date, such as the OSHA 10-Hour and 30-Hour outreach courses. The certificate stays valid on our records. Your company or site may still require refresher training on its own schedule.

How do I tell if a certificate is legitimate?

Enter the number from the certificate. A real P3 certificate always has a record here, and its details (the holder's name, the course, the company, and the dates) should match the paper or card. Valid and Expired certificates are both authentic; Expired just means it is out of date.

If the number is not found, or the details do not match, treat the certificate as suspect and let us know.

The name or company doesn't exactly match. Is that normal?

Sometimes. A name may include a middle initial in one place and not the other, and companies sometimes change their legal name or DBA. If the certificate number, course, and dates line up, it is the same certificate. If something looks very different, contact us.

What is a "Legacy" record?

A certificate P3 Safety Solutions issued before our current certificate system. Those records were imported, so they are real P3 certificates, but they have a longer, older-style number and may not list every detail, such as the instructor. You can still verify one by entering its number exactly as printed.

Why does a record say "Trainer" instead of "Instructor"?

Some classes are taught by a company's own certified trainer rather than a P3 Safety Solutions instructor. In that case the record names the trainer who delivered the class, so the certificate is never credited to someone who did not teach it.

Can't find it?

I can't find a certificate that should exist. What now?
  • Check the number exactly as printed. The letter O and the number 0 are easy to confuse.
  • Try searching by the student's last name only.
  • If the class is still in progress, the number shows as Pending until the class is completed.
  • First Aid, CPR, and AED certificates come from the American Red Cross, not from P3 (see below).
  • Still missing? Email info@p3safetysolutions.com with the certificate number and the student's full name, and we will look into it.
I'm looking for a First Aid, CPR, or AED certificate.

P3 Safety Solutions teaches these as American Red Cross classes, and the Red Cross issues the certificates. They are not listed here. Look them up on the Red Cross digital certificate page.

How do I report a suspicious or fake certificate?

Email info@p3safetysolutions.com with a photo or scan of the certificate, where you received it, and the result you saw on this page. We take certificate fraud seriously and will investigate.

For students

Can I download my own certificate from here?

No. This page confirms that a certificate is real; it does not hand out copies. After your class is completed, P3 Safety Solutions emails you a download link, which works for 7 days. If yours has expired or never arrived, email info@p3safetysolutions.com and we will resend it.

Still have a question? Email info@p3safetysolutions.com or call (602) 730-0422.
