Make the learning experiences even more fun for participants with interactive diplomas or certificates!
Creating a diploma
To create a personalized diploma, go to the Library → Materials and click on "Add Materials" → Diploma".
Name your diploma, add a description, and select regional formatting.
Click on “Create PDF” and add the PDF file.
Make your diploma personalized by adding dynamic content. For example, add the variable "Name" and place it wherever you want. This will automatically generate the name of the receiving participant. You can also add, for example, “Project name" as well as the date and instructor name. Furthermore, you can brand the diploma content by changing font, size, and color. Note: it is also possible to add a static text block (content that will not change depending on who receives the diploma).
Preview the diploma by clicking "Preview PDF”
All done!
Attaching the diploma
Go to the course and the tab "Overview".
Under "Awards", click "Attach" and choose your diploma.
When a participant has completed the course, a banner that says "Congratulations, you have completed this course. View your award." will be shown which they can click on to view their award. They can always return to ”Awards” to find all their diplomas and certificates.
Creating a certificate
Go to the library → Materials and click "Add Materials" → Certificate.
Name your certificate and active "Expiration of certificate" if you wish the certificate to be valid for a specific number of months. If "Expiration of certificate" is activated, enter when you wish a notification should be sent to the learner. Select regional formatting and add a PDF file with personalized content (not mandatory).
Go to the tab “Auto re-enrollment” and switch it to ON if you wish the participant to be automatically re-enrolled to a course upon certificate expiration (expiration of certificate must be turned on for this to work). Choose which course the learner should be enrolled in and how many days prior to the certificate expiration the enrollment should occur. You can also attach the certificate you are creating to the selected course directly in this view to work more efficiently.
Lastly, you can create automated communication with personalized variables, if you wish to engage the learner, team manager, or administrator in the learning journey.
Click next to Review your settings and thereafter click Add Certificate.
