Unable to connect to eduroam network

A few days ago, my computer just started to stop being able to connect to my college's eduroam network, despite it working perfectly before. I do not know what I could have done to make it break like this but viewing

journalctl -r

shows a yellow line which i believe to likely to be the cause of the problem. it reads:

Oct 21 11:08:57 arch wpa_supplicant[816]: TLS: Certificate verification failed, error 10 (certificate has expired) depth 0 for '/C=GB/L=HAVERFORDWEST/O=Pembrokeshire College/CN=nps03.pembrokeshire.ac.uk'

I tried looking this up and reinstalling my wpa_supplicant but could not find any resource which seems to tell me why this is. Any ideas as to why this has happened?

I think my first instinct would be to provide Pembrookshire Collage network support the error and see if there are any issues with their ssl/tls certificate.

so the tsl cert is something on their end rather than mine?

Of course you'll want to verify that the time and date is correct on your machine first.
