Certificates or ID Cards can be added to your site to acknowledge the completions of your users.

To add a Certificate or ID Card to a course, the course will need to be within a Collection. Learn more about Collections here.

You can:

• Add a Certificate
• Add an ID Card award

Add a Certificate

Once you have created a collection and added at least one course, you can add a certificate to it by clicking Add Certificate in the collection editor.

This will take you to the certificate editor where you can customise the look of your certificate and adjust the settings. 

Certificate Editor

In the certificate editor you will see some sections are grey.

The grey sections are pulled from the Intuto system and can't be changed from the certificate editor. All other sections on the certificate are customisable, you can change these by clicking on them and typing what you would like the certificate to say.

There are character limits on each text section to ensure the certificate displays correctly, these are:

• Certificate title: 60 characters

• Completion text: 120 characters

• Certificate name: 100 characters

You can update the logo image in the top left by clicking on it and either editing the current image or selecting a new one. You can load up to 3 images in this section, they will be displayed underneath each other down the side of the page. Click the "+" icon to add another image. These images must be at least 300 x 144 pixels. Use the X to remove an image, or the arrows to reorder the images.

Upload an image of your signature by clicking the on the Signature image and replacing it with your own. The certificate looks the best if your signature is on a white background, and the image must be at least 300 x 100 pixels.

The bottom banner can also be changed. Click the banner and replace it with an image of your choice. This image must be at least 500 x 100 pixels.
