The wording is indeed unusual. Normally some such clause as 'examinibus peractis' or the like is adjoined. 'Probavit' in a diploma ordinarily means 'tested and proved, proved by testing' or by some other demonstration of his learning. But its direct object here seems to be 'cursum suum', not 'alumnum'.
