Today we’re excited to unveil one of the major updates to Certifier – the Issuer's Portal. The Issuer's Portal serves as a central hub displaying detailed information about each issuer, their offered credentials, and the directory of recipients they certified. This release marks a major milestone for Certifier, bringing immense value to our issuers, their recipients, and any third-party entities allowing for easy acquaintance with an issuer's offerings and the directory of recipients, as well as unifying the recipient experience.${{ section-yellow-start }}⭐ Eager to see the Issuer's Portal in action? Check <a href="https://credentials.codedevs.pro/issuers/01j6erm2f6aq7xx2b35zkv3k0f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Demo Portal!</a>${{ section-yellow-end }}<h2>Key highlights of the Issuer's Portal { Key highlights of the Issuer's Portal }</h2>The Issuer's Portal will empower Certifier issuers to manage, display, and promote their credentials and certified recipients more effectively than ever before. Let’s dive into what the Issuer’s Portal is made of:Issuer’s Profile –&nbsp;the main page from which everything else evolves. It prominently displays information about the issuer, including all relevant links and tabs for credentials and recipient directories.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1728312740/issuers_portal_835eb9d021.png" alt="A screenshot showing the Issuer's profile.">${{ section-blue-start }}💎 We also added the possibility to upload a banner image to elevate the visual look of each issuer’s profile even more.${{ section-blue-end }}Credentials Directory –&nbsp;the page listing all the credentials an issuer offers, with the possibility of opening a particular credential to view detailed information about it.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1728301943/credentials_directory_a2c52a09fd.png" alt="A screenshot showing the Credentials Directory.">Recipients Directory – the page listing all the certified recipients of a particular issuer along with their credentials. The credentials of a single recipient are now prominently presented on a dedicated page. Each recipient is now provided with a dedicated profile that can be accessed from any credential they've been awarded, as well as from the issuer's directory page. This profile conveniently displays the awards of each recipient, allowing for easy access and showcase.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1728302199/recipient_profile_63091cafd7.png" alt="A smiling woman placed in front of her recipient profile. ">${{ section-blue-start }}💎 We also made it possible for the recipients to manage the visibility of their accounts and individual credentials.${{ section-blue-end }}Credential Retrieval Page –&nbsp;the page allowing your recipients to quickly find their credentials, all in one place.Credential Verification Page –&nbsp;the page page allowing for secure verification of credentials to ensure authenticity and build trust.<h2>3 core principles of the Issuer's Portal { 3 Core principles of the Issuer's Portal }</h2>When we set out to develop the Issuer's Portal, our goal was to create a centralized hub that would revolutionize how issuers manage and showcase their credentials and certified recipients.With that vision in mind, the Issuer's Portal is built on three core principles:<h3>1. Dedicated approach and issuer's exclusivity</h3>Unlike other digital credentialing platforms that invite issuers to join a shared marketplace filled with numerous companies offering their learning products, we believe in providing a tailored, exclusive experience for each of our issuers. Each Issuer's Portal is uniquely created and branded for the individual issuer. This means that recipients and visitors only see the credentials, certifications, and achievements associated with that specific issuer, creating a focused and personalized environment.${{ section-yellow-start }}Think of our approach as the Shopify experience: your own store, your own rules, your own branding — rather than being part of an open marketplace like Amazon.${{ section-yellow-end }}<h3>2. Effortless management and full visibility control</h3>We understand that your time is valuable, which is why managing your Issuer’s Portal is incredibly easy and intuitive. The portal is created automatically based on the groups you set up in your Certifier account, as well as the recipients you certified. From the moment you certify a recipient or create a new group, it’s instantly reflected in your portal.You have full control over groups and recipients you want to display or hide. Your recipients can also manage their visibility within your directory and hide their profiles without needing your approval or intervention. Of course, you also retain the power to manage recipient visibility as needed.<h3>3. Promoting lifelong learning and recipient engagement</h3>The Recipients Directory not only highlights the achievements of your certified recipients but also plays a key role in retaining and motivating them. By publicly recognizing their accomplishments and showcasing top learners, the directory inspires recipients to stay in the loop, upskill, and earn more awards. This recognition serves as a powerful motivator, encouraging recipients to pursue additional credentials, stay engaged with your offerings, and continuously enhance their skills.<h2>Conclusion</h2>The introduction of the Issuer's Portal marks a significant step forward in our mission to empower issuers and recipients alike.With our dedicated tailored approach, effortless management, and recipient engagement promotion, Certifier sets a new standard in the digital credentialing landscape.We believe these updates will not only level up how issuers manage and showcase their credentials but also enrich the recipient experience, making it easier for individuals to proudly display their achievements. We’re excited to see how the Issuer's Portal will transform the way you interact with your certifications and look forward to continuing to innovate in ways that support your success.

How to Make a Course Certificate?

Do you want to make your certification program but don’t know where to start? It's a lot to cover, but this guide will get you started.Our aim is to equip you with the industry expert knowledge and tools needed to create a certification program that stands out. Let's begin this journey together and transform the baseline skills and experience into a valuable learning opportunity for others!<h2>What is a certification program? { What is a certification program? }</h2>The certification program is a course that ends with a certificate that proves a certain skill, qualification, or professional area. To get this, its participants usually have to pass a test or complete a special class. Sometimes, they might need to keep learning or retake the test after a while to demonstrate that they remain competent.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1706732453/how_to_create_a_certification_program_Certifier_blog_what_is_a_certification_program_e5915cae64.png" alt="The certificate that ends the certification program."><h2>Benefits of a certification program&nbsp;{ Benefits }</h2>Whether you are an individual who decides to learn something new or a company that organizes a <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/create-your-own-diploma-11-best-practices" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent;">new certification course</a> for your employees, everyone can benefit from online certification programs (or in-person ones). Here are a couple of the benefits of certification training.<h3>Investing in your employees' skills</h3>For businesses, certification programs can help ensure employees have the necessary skills and foundational knowledge to do their jobs correctly. For example, any leadership role might require <a href="https://monday.com/blog/rnd/agile-project-management-certification" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">certification in the agile approach to project management</a>. Workers are the backbone of every company, so the better they are trained, the more productive and profitable a company can be. Therefore, it is essential and advantageous for companies to invest in their career skills by providing training programs.<h3>Creating an educational environment at work</h3>You can create an educational environment at your workplace by providing a training program. So, your company would be a great place to work for those willing to expand their knowledge, gain new skills, and be professional in a particular industry. Training helps employees learn new skills, stay updated on industry changes, and improve problem-solving abilities.&nbsp;<h3>Attracting high-quality employees and improving customer satisfaction</h3>You can also use both in-person and online certification programs to attract and retain high-quality employees and improve customer satisfaction. Certification also shows that employees are dedicated to their careers and are willing to invest time and effort into learning new things. So, attracting more ambitious workers is possible when they see that a company they want to apply to provides such certified courses.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>The sense of development for individuals</h3>For individuals, certification programs can provide a sense of accomplishment, completion, and pride and improve job prospects and earnings potential.&nbsp;If you, as an employee, are not quite sure about participating, you can ask for a free demo of a new certification course you are planning to take part in.<h2>How to create a certification program? { How to create it? }</h2>It takes special preparation to create an online certification program. A thing like this doesn't just happen overnight (at least the best ones). What makes one certification program better than another?${{ section-blue-start }}How to create a certification program? Here are the main steps you must take.${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 1: Identify the needs and course scope${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 2: Choose the certification course format${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 3: Set up the logistics${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 4: Pick the best certification software${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 5: Promote the course${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-start }}Step 6: Track the progress${{ list-item-checkmark-blue-end }}${{ section-blue-end }}<h3>Step 1: Identify the needs and course scope</h3>The first step is to develop the program content. It will include determining the objectives of the certification course and what topics you want and need to cover. Once you have a clear idea of the program's goals and scope, you can begin developing the actual content, such as course materials, test questions, and so on.Tips from experts:<ul><li>Consult with industry experts to understand the current job market and identify high-demand skills that set professionals apart.</li><li>Determine the technical skills and job-ready skills that are in high demand but not adequately covered by existing certificate programs or a college degree program and school diploma.</li><li>Develop an industry-recognized certification program that addresses these gaps and provides practical, hands-on projects.</li></ul><h3>Step 2: Choose the certification course format</h3>Consider the preferred learning styles of your target audience. Do they benefit more from interactive, hands-on learning or traditional lecture-based methods?Choose between online, offline, or blended learning formats.Online self-paced courses offer flexibility, while certification training with instructors can provide more structured learning.<h3>Step 3: Set up the logistics</h3>Determine what educational resources you need, including expert instructors, course materials, and technical support.You'll also need human resources. Hire expert instructors who are not only knowledgeable but also skilled in teaching and engaging students.

Compare features like user interface, scalability, data security, and cost.
