- 2.What is an electronic confirmation of studies?The electronic confirmation of studies is a full-fledged variant of the confirmation of studies printed on paper, stamped and signed by the responsible person. Authenticity (who issued the certificate) and integrity (that the content of the certificate is not changed) is ensured in the electronic certificate by the electronic seal stored inside the PDF file. The electronic certificate used complies with current EU legislation and therefore the electronic confirmation of studies has at least the same credibility as the paper version.
- 3.How can an electronic confirmation of studies be used?Electronic confirmation of study can be used:
- In the original electronic form, ie by sending it to an electronic registry of a public authority, sending it to a data box, storing it in an application on the Citizen's Portal, sending it by e-mail, handing it over to a USB disk, etc. The addressee shall verify the authenticity by verifying the electronic certificate.
- In paper form – the confirmation can be printed and physically presented to the addressee. The addressee verifies its authenticity based on the QR code by displaying its electronic original in IS JAMU.
- In the form of an authorized conversion – the certificate can be certified in a certified form at CzechPOINTs, at notaries, attorneys, at municipal, regional and registry offices, at the Chamber of Commerce or at embassies of the Czech Republic. The addressee of the confirmation shall verify the authenticity of the conversion directly from the instrument, based on the clause attached to the instrument.
- 4.Who can issue an electronic confimation of studies?An electronic confirmation of studies is either issued by the student himself / herself using the Electronic Confirmation of Studies application, or it is issued by a study department officer.
- 5.What types of confirmation of studies are issued electronically?The application will automatically evaluate what type of confirmation the student is entitled to. A confirmation of studies, confirmation of interruption of study and confirmation of length of study is available. Confirmation with the same content is generated at most once per student. This means that eg a confirmation of studies is issued no more than once for the current semester. However, the student has all previously created confirmations available in the application.
- 6.How does a student issue an electronic confirmation of studies?The Information System Student During studies E-Transcripts Confirmation of StudiesIn the Electronic Confirmation of Studies application, the student either clicks on the "Issue confirmation" button or selects the required confirmation from previously created. The student has the possibility to download the PDF file with the created confirmation from the IS himself or to use a permanent link to the specific confirmation offered by the IS. The link includes a key to ensure that only the person to whom the link was sent by the student gets the confirmation. The link leads to an unauthenticated part of IS, so no login is required.
- 7.When will I issue a confirmation of studies for the next semester?The confirmation of studies is always issued for the current period . The exception is for new students, for whom the confirmation is issued from the date of enrolment.
- 8.Who will get my confirmation of studies? Can I delete the confirmation?Only the person to whom the student send the key link will receive confirmation via an unauthenticated link. There is no button to delete a previously created confirmation. It is a feature of the electronic seal that the issuer of the sealed confirmation cannot deny that he has issued the certificate. Therefore, be careful about the link and do not provide it publicly.
- 9.Is there information about the current state of study?The confirmation of studies is issued for a specific period, typically for one semester. If a valid confirmation is displayed using the link, the IS will add to the page whether or not the student is still studying at the moment the confirmation is displayed. If the link shows a certificate that has already expired (eg the confirmation was issued for the last semester), information about the current state of study is not published and it is only stated that the confirmation has expired.
- 10.What options does a student have when printing a Scholarship Confirmation?A student can have a confirmation issued for the entire period of his/her time at JAMU or select scholarships paid at a specific time interval. It is also possible to select only scholarships awarded by a specific faculty or a faculty-wide department.
- 11.Why issuing E-Transcripts takes time?The E-Transcripts must be provided by a qualified, electronic signature called the electronic seal. It takes time to register the issued certificate, seal it and register the issued seal. It also depends on how many other documents the system must seal in total at any given time. If the system determines that it would take too long to expose the document, it will notify the email that the document has been generated.
- 12.How can I verify that the PDF has the correct and valid seal?Download a PDF file and open it eg in Acrobat Reader. Find the pen symbol to find out who signed the document. Alternatively, look for the "Verify signature", "Signature properties", or "View signature author certificate" buttons. More detailed instructions cannot be provided because the procedure varies according to browser versions and variations. In the case of electronic confirmation of studies, a link to a specific confirmation in the Information System can also be used as a form of validation. For ease of use, the link is part of the QR code planted in the certificate.
- 13.Can an electronic confirmation of studies be refused and a manual signature on paper be required?The Regulation (EU) N°910/2014 on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market (eIDAS Regulation) pursuant to which the electronic endorsement is sealed, in Article 46 Legal effects of electronic documents states: "An electronic document shall not be denied legal effect and admissibility as evidence in legal proceedings solely on the grounds that it is in electronic form."
- 14.Does the e-statement also have to be signed even if it is sealed?
As it is an automated output from the public administration information system, Act No. 365/2000 Coll., o informačních systémech veřejné správy § Section 9(2) allows the use of only a qualified seal instead of a qualified signature. According to the same Act, the part (file service) of the Information System JAMU is a public administration information system.
The electronic seal may also be used in other cases provided for by Act No. 297/2016 Coll., Section 8: „Nestanoví-li jiný právní předpis jako náležitost právního jednání obsaženého v dokumentu podpis nebo tato náležitost nevyplývá z povahy právního jednání, veřejnoprávní podepisující a jiná právnická osoba, jedná-li při výkonu své působnosti, zapečetí dokument v elektronické podobě kvalifikovanou elektronickou pečetí."
- 15.Can I apply for an electronic version of my diploma for previously completed studies at JAMU?No. To issue a deed a hard copy of these documents, please contact your study department.
- 16.The validity of the electronic signature cannot be verified. What to do?
The electronic signature is valid, only the certificate has expired in the meantime and is only valid for one year. The fact that the document is valid is also confirmed by the seal, which can be seen on the next line and is lit green - it is issued on the current date.
We recommend that the beneficiary submits this document with this explanation. It may happen that an institution refuses such a document, which is contrary to the legislation of the Czech Republic and the EU, but it is usually easier to ask the study department to issue a document in paper form in such a case.
