Diploma

certificate conferring some honor, degree, or privilege

A diploma is a certificate you receive from a school when you have studied or completed the subject with good results.[1] For many jobs a diploma is needed, because it proves that you are good at the subject you studied. A diploma is usually a basic degree that is lower than a bachelor's degree. In the past, it has also referred to a charter or official document of diplomacy.[2][3]
