Advanced Customization

- Bold, italicize and change text size
- Edit certificate title, body and footer text
- Certificates badges, logo and images.
Consider inputting the variables full name and/or username. This will ensure you know to whom the certificate is awarded! Updating these settings will not alter the certificate once earned and generated.

9. Go to your chosen course and click on the 'Completion' tab and tick the 'Completion Certificate' checkbox. Changes will be saved automatically.
Accessing the certificates as an admin
Certificates awarded to learners can be accessed by admins in two different ways:
A. From "App Settings" to "Certificates" and "Awarded"
B. Head to "Courseware" select a course to "Course Settings" and "Completion"
Managing Certificates:
- Admins can sort the certificates by learner name and date awarded
- Admins can search course certificates by course name
- Admins may request bulk downloads of certificates per course
Updating these styling settings will not alter the certificate once earned and generated. Ensure you've set up your certificates to include all the needed information before they are generated.
