Here's some information class about he was teaching right until they scrubbed it: https://web.archive.org/web/20120430035605/http://www.itmast...
And another: https://archive.is/ttLth
This was on their youtube page: https://archive.is/gXPkX "Presented by Dr Craig Wright of Charles Sturt University and the Global Institute for Cyber Security + Research."
The SGI endorsement letter existed. I have a copy, but the web version was scrubbed. The remaining evidence is in the form of a copy of press release http://archive.is/cqI6S
If Craig Wright has a PhD you should be able to find his dissertation, look up his advisor/thesis committee, see his publications in CS conferences, etc.

I suspect he may very well have considered himself 'basically done' with his PhD several years ago and just started using the title. He wouldn't be the first
A few weeks before bitcoin's release: https://archive.is/Ao7DQ
"Many 2-year community colleges often hire instructors with only master’s degrees, as long as they have some teaching experience. Four-year colleges and universities usually require a doctoral degree, unless you have decades of experience in your field, in addition to a master’s." http://www.teachingdegree.org/types-of-teachers/higher-educa...
That said, I don't actually doubt that the SGI letter exists, but also believe it was totally fabricated by Craig Wright.

>The article then mentions the above claim that SGI had no relationship with Craig Wright, and also attacks Wright’s academic credibility by stating he lied about his PhD degree – stating that Charles Sturt University never provided him with any PhD. But CoinGeek and I have already verified and confirmed that the degrees all do exist.
Whereas Forbes says:
> His now-wiped LinkedIn page [..] suggested he had a PhD in computer science with Sydney's Charles Sturt University (CSU). But a statement sent to FORBES today from the university said it had never handed Wright any PhD. "Mr Wright has not been awarded a PhD from CSU," the statement read. [0]
Both of these statements can not be correct, right? Maybe he could he have gotten his PhD after the Forbes article? If so this article should make it clear that the early claims he did not have a PhD from CSU were correct but that this state of affairs has changed.
This story also says:
>CoinGeek has since received mounting evidence which in fact provide strong proofs that SGI did work closely with Craig Wright. Countless emails, records, documents, training material, reference letters, including a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement by both Chris Clarkson (formerly) of SGI, and Craig Wright. Also on hand is evidence of conference video footage of the two parties in question.
However the linked article reads:
>SGI says that “Cloudcroft has never been an SGI customer and SGI has no relationship with Cloudcroft CEO Craig Steven Wright.” [1]
It could well be the case that Cloudcroft was not an SGI customer and that SGI has no relationship with Cloudcroft and also that Cloudcroft and SGI had communications. These are not mutually exclusive claims.
