The objective of this work is to identify alternatives for certification in the academic process of HEIs, based on the understanding of the effective objects of certifications that include professional training, the objectives pursued in these and the materiality of the evaluations involved. As a research methodology, a quasi-systematic review was applied considering the following guiding questions: 'what to certify', 'how to certify' and 'why to certify', from the analysis of which it was concluded that they are certification alternatives: to validate if practices and knowledge worked in HEIs remains guided by contemporary sciences and technologies, to encourage the competence of continuous learning in academic actors, to approach the relationship between university and society, as well as contact with graduates, to identify certification demands and adopt monitoring indicators continuous improvement of its human capital.
