How do I issue my first certificate?

Issuing your first certificate takes only a few minutes once a course exists:

1. Design the template — add your logo, colours, a title, and signature. Most LMS platforms include ready-made templates you can customise.
2. Add the dynamic fields — learner name, course title, date, and a unique ID populate automatically for each person.
3. Set the trigger — decide what earns it: completing the course, passing the assessment at a set score, or finishing a whole learning path.
4. Attach it to the course and publish.
5. Let the system do the rest — when a learner meets the rule, the certificate is generated and available to download as a PDF instantly.

That's it — no manual issuing. For compliance courses, also set a validity period so the certificate expires and triggers a renewal reminder. Once your first template is set up, you can reuse and tweak it for every other course, so certificates become a standard part of completing any training.
