Latest in September: QR Codes And Enhanced Analytics 🎉

Let me start with one of the greatest myths associated with certificates. Lots of people think that the biggest value of the certification process is to award a person with their certificate by delivering it either virtually or physically. This is perceived as the culmination of your certificate's journey. In fact, certificates are much more than that.<h2>Why are certificates so beneficial to boost traffic? { Why are certificates so beneficial? }</h2>Certificates continue to deliver value to you as an issuer even weeks or months after they were issued. They work as a marketing tool that promotes your brand and generates potential clients. Here is how:<ol><li>You issue certificates&nbsp;</li><li>Your recipients add them on LinkedIn profiles or share them on social media&nbsp;</li><li>The certificates are exposed to your recipients’ network</li><li>Any certificate viewer can get to know about you</li><li>You get free traffic to your website or social media profile</li></ol>As you can see, at some moment, certificates might be compared to ad banners. They literally generate new leads at no additional cost. All you need to do then is consider using a <a href="https://capsulecrm.com/industries/crm-small-business/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">small business CRM</a> to <a href="https://monday.com/crm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">manage your sales leads</a>. This is just an unexpected bonus that you get.&nbsp;One of the ways to measure the marketing effectiveness of certificates is to look at the clicks they generate. At Certifier, you can see how many clicks your certificates brought you and evaluate your marketing gain.The question here is: How to get more clicks? How do encourage certificate visitors to be more engaged? Although it might sound like a challenging task, there are several proven strategies that do work. Read on to find out what they are.<h2>Top strategies to drive traffic with certificates { Top strategies to drive traffic with certificates }</h2><h3>#1 Encourage your recipients to share</h3>The thing that you should start with is to encourage your recipients to share their certificates and add them to their LinkedIn profiles. By exposing your certificates to a bigger audience, you make your learning events and your company’s brand more recognizable. It also goes without saying that, the more shares you have, the better certificate visibility you get.&nbsp;Some ideas to help you motivate your recipients to share their certificates:<ul><li>make your certificates visually appealing. The better a certificate looks, the more likely someone will be to post it on their feed.</li><li>emphasize certificates' value. Make sure your recipients are proud of the document they get.&nbsp;</li><li>talk about the significance of sharing a certificate before and during your event. Do not just ask your recipients to share their certificates at the end of your event, but look for opportunities to communicate this during or even before your event takes place.</li><li>make your certificate page look aligned to your branding. When everything on the certificate page looks familiar to the recipient, they are more likely to share it with their network.</li></ul>💡PRO TIP: It is a well-known fact, that the less effort we invest into something, the less value we see in it. Thus, one of the ways to boost your certificates' value is to create a small "obstacle" on the way to getting them. For example, there might be a pre-condition for getting a certificate – passing an easy interactive quiz.&nbsp;You can also use it <a href="[follow]https://www.findymail.com/blog/best-cold-outreach-tools/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">cold outreach</a> upon finding email addresses of your target group.💡PRO TIP: You can integrate Certifier with your quiz tool and your recipients will automatically get their certificates once they successfully pass a quiz!<h3>#2 Work on a catchy issuer's description</h3>Don’t forget to add your company’s name and a catchy description of your organization. Make sure that your description is compelling, short, and clearly describes what you specialize in. This information will be displayed on each certificate you issue and act as a way to tell your viewers about your company in a few sentences.At Certifier, the issuer's name and description are placed next to the certificate:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1663069088/Issuer_s_name_and_company_s_description_388f518748.webp" alt="Issuer's name and company's description">💡PRO TIP: If you are not sure how to write a catchy issuer’s description, check the hero section of your company’s website. Usually, this section contains a powerful message that clearly describes the company’s specialization in one paragraph.<h3>#3 Provide links to your website and learning events</h3>At Certifier, we give you the possibility to place your website and learning event links that will clearly be visible on each certificate you issue. A link to your website will be also embedded in your company’s logo in the navbar. In addition to this, you should add a link to all your company’s events. This can be either a page dedicated to all your courses/webinars/etc., a link with your curriculum, or anything similar.&nbsp;Here is how we display the issuer's website and learning events link at Certifier:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1663069212/Website_and_learning_events_2aa815d84f.webp" alt="Website and learning events">💡 PRO TIP: If there is no dedicated page where people can get acquainted with the learning events you conduct, consider creating it. Such pages are extremely useful, especially if you have several events dedicated to different topics. They showcase your specialization and display all the courses, webinars, or other events you have in one place.&nbsp;<h3>#4 Include the links to your organization's social media profiles</h3>Do not hesitate to enrich the issuer's section with your company's social media profiles. Add a link to your LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.&nbsp;&nbsp;At Certifier, we place the social media profiles of your company under the issuer name:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1663069480/Company_s_social_media_profiles_41d7b62099.webp" alt="Company's social media profiles">💡 PRO TIP: If some of your social media profiles are not updated regularly, consider not adding them. You should add only those links that have relevant up-to-date information about your company.&nbsp;<h3>#5 When creating a group, place a link redirecting users to its learning event</h3>Digital certificates are mostly used for online events, so when creating a group, do not hesitate to add your learning event’s link to its description. By doing this, you transform the group name depicted on the certificate page into a link. Thus, if your certificate visitor is interested in this particular event/membership/etc., they will be able to learn more about it by clicking on this link.&nbsp;&nbsp;Here is how it will look:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1663069719/The_Learning_Event_for_which_this_Certificate_was_Issued_jpg_051921e893.webp" alt="The Learning Event for which this Certificate was Issued.webp">💡 PRO TIP: If you have already issued some certificates without a group link, go and update those groups. The changes will be visible on the already issued certificates.<h2>Summary { Conclusion }</h2>Clicks are among the most accurate ways to measure the marketing effectiveness of your certificates. <a href="https://www.designrush.com/agency/paid-media-pay-per-click/trends/ppc-platforms" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pay per click platforms</a> can really improve the percentage of engagement with your business. Increasing the number of clicks results in turning your certificates into ad tools that can generate more event attendees or learning event participants. Several proven strategies can help you boost your clicks:<ul><li>Encourage your recipients to share</li><li>Work on a catchy organization description</li><li>Provide links to your website and learning events.</li><li>Include the links to your organization’s social media profiles</li><li>Add a link to the event for which you issue certificates</li></ul>

5 Strategies to Drive Traffic with Certificates

<h2>Who are the top promoters? { Who are the top promoters? }</h2>As discussed in <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/5-strategies-to-drive-traffic-with-certificates" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">this article</a>, when someone shares their certificate on social media, it starts working as a marketing tool that promotes your brand and generates potential clients. It is a hidden bonus of issuing certificates.However, not all certificates are equal in terms of the marketing impact they make on your organization. Some bring lots of views and traffic to your website, others – do not. At Certifier, the recipients of the best performing certificates are called top promoters.&nbsp;We can compare such recipients to influencers, i.e. those who have the power to influence big audiences due to their authority, knowledge, or position. Top promoters can help boost your marketing reach and spread the word about your company or particular learning event. So how can you engage with top promoters to maximize certificates' marketing value? Let's get to know the fastest.<h2>Tips to engage with top promoters and maximize certificate value { Tips to engage top promoters }</h2><h3>#1 Respond to top promoters' posts with shared certificates</h3>The first thing you should do is to find the profile of your top promoter(s) on the social media where they shared their certificate. Leave a comment under this post and say thank you for sharing their achievement. Consider looking through the comments and reactions to get the idea of those individuals who showed the highest level of engagement. Following this, you can reply to some comments, react to them, or visit and connect with the engaged profiles.&nbsp;&nbsp;It will help you boost post engagement even more and connect with those people who showed the biggest interest in your learning event. This is an example of a response given by our customer eSuite on LinkedIn:This is an example of a response given by Certifier's customer eSuite on LinkedIn:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1663062057/Comment_under_shared_certificate_799c9ea768.jpg" alt="Comment under shared certificate.jpg">As you can see, the shared certificate received two comments: (1) from Nathan Bush – the director of eSuite, and the other (2) from the official eSuite account.&nbsp;<h3>#2 Provide some gifts for the top promoters' audience</h3>Use the momentum and ask your top promoters to share some discount coupons or even a free ticket for people from their network. Given that this network is already very much interested in your event, providing a discount code created specifically for them might increase the chances of turning these people into your paying customers.<h3>#3 Turn your promoters into brand ambassadors</h3>Influencer marketing is one of the most powerful marketing tools. Thus, you can consider collaborating with your rock star promoter by, for example, making this promoter your brand’s ambassador. This involves constant mentioning of your learning events on their social media channels, posting updates about upcoming events, etc.&nbsp;<h3>#4 Ask your top promoters to post feedback about your company, course, or certification program</h3>If influencer marketing is not a part of your company’s marketing strategy, you can simply ask your top promoters to post honest feedback about your event or company. In exchange for that, you can offer some other events or courses you have for free.<h3>#5 Ask top promoters to share their certificate on other social media</h3>At Certifier, you can see which social media your certificate was shared on. If a top promoter shared their certificate on, e.g.,&nbsp;LinkedIn only, you can ask them to share their certificate on other social media profiles, i.e. Twitter and Facebook. It will increase the certificate’s exposure to the promoter’s network from other channels.<h2>Summary { Conclusion }</h2>In this article, we discussed the ways to engage with top promoters and maximize the marketing gain generated by certificates. We found out that top promoters are those certificate recipients whose network showed a particularly high interest in the certificate they shared. We compare such people to influencers with whom you can collaborate to spread the word about your organization and increase your event attendance, course participants, or the number of association members.<h2>🤓 Homework for Certifier users</h2>So now, when you know who the top promoters are, we want to recommend you develop and implement the strategy of cooperating with your top promoters. Check the Top promoters section in Certifier’s analytics tab, find your top promoters' profiles on social media, and analyze them. Combine this knowledge with the nature of your events, and develop a real strategy of engaging with the holders of the best-performing certificates that will help you increase the number of your event attendees or course registrants.&nbsp;

Top promoters are those certificate recipients, whose network showed a particularly high interest in the certificate they shared. Read on to find out how you can engage with such recipients to increase certificates' marketing reach.

Maximize the Value from Certificates: Top Promoters 101

As technology continues to advance, everything nowadays is tending to become digitized, and the need to strengthen data transfer security has increased.In the world of certificates, we have two main options: PDF certificates and digital certificates.Nowadays, digital certificates are the ones that are most in demand, leaving PDF certificates far behind. But are they safe enough?In this article, you will find out about digital and PDF certificates, the underlying differences between them, and recommendations about what to choose.&nbsp;<h2>What is a digital certificate? { Digital certificate definition }</h2>A digital certificate, also known as a public key certificate, is an electronic credential (like a password) used to confirm online identities. It allows individuals and organizations to exchange data in a fixed and safe manner over the Internet with the usage of public key infrastructure (PKI). Moreover, a well-trusted institution known as a Certificate Authority (CA) issues digital certificates. Because such organizations store and sign these certificates, excellent data protection against cybercrimes (e.g., unauthorized access by hackers) is provided.A digital certificate involves transferring public keys used for validation and encryption algorithms. During this process, the owner's digital identities and access to the public key are verified.Not only does a digital certificate issued by a certification authority guarantee the sender's identity, but it also contains the public key along with other information concerning the sender in order to enhance security.<h2>What is a PDF certificate? { PDF certificate definition }</h2>A PDF certificate is a document that has been converted to a Portable Document Format (PDF), which differs significantly from a <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/what-are-digital-credentials" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">digital credential</a>. The former is usually a physical document (such as a degree, diploma, undergraduate certificate, or master’s certificate) that is created manually without the help of an external company.A PDF certificate file does not have a public key and can easily be counterfeited or shared. It is often issued first as a paper document that is then scanned by the user and converted into PDF format or created digitally from scratch. Such certificates in the form of PDFs can be distributed by, e.g., email attachment.⚠️ Because of the lack of a security code, PDF files can get into the wrong hands and be used for scams. PDF certificates have a lot of weaknesses, one of the biggest of which is the unrestricted possibility of editing their content using any PDF editor. Consequently, PDF certificates are not as reliable as digital certificates issued by entrusted institutions.&nbsp;<h2>Digital certificate vs. PDF certificate: the differences { The differences }</h2>If we take a closer look, there are many fundamental differences between digital certificates and PDF certificates.In this part of the article, we are going to discuss the most noteworthy ones.Moreover, this will be especially relevant if you are going to face a choice of the future format for your certificate.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1667846978/digital_certificate_vs_pdf_certificates_certifier_blog_92bc73af80.png" alt="digital-certificate-vs-pdf-certificates-certifier-blog"><h3>⏳ Preparation process &amp; time consumption </h3>To start with, we will describe the preparation process for both digital and PDF certificates. This analysis will show us which ones are simpler and more convenient to prepare.Preparation of a PDF certificate is usually extremely time-consuming and certainly more challenging to do on your own. The process frequently requires the management of various programs such as Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Excel, <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/64-free-word-certificate-templates" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Microsoft Word</a>, etc. It usually takes a dozen steps, during which it is easy to get confused.Additionally, the file, after its creation, has to be <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/8-considerations-to-keep-in-mind-when-you-print-certificates" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">printed</a>, signed by hand, then scanned, and re-converted to PDF or a digital signature added. However, it should be noted that this type of file is not the original document that is often asked for in higher institutions (e.g., universities, banks, or offices). So even after delivering the file via email, it may still be necessary to provide the document in person.Meanwhile, preparing a digital certificate is straightforward. Using our certificate creator, you can complete the entire process in a few simple steps starting with <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/top-8-best-certificate-design-principles-to-create-a-lasting-impression" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">creating a design</a>. Moreover, the platform Certifier enables the use of advanced tools to create a format from scratches.Apart from that, there is an opportunity to use a range of templates that can be easily adapted to the needs of various certificates. The user then creates a group and names it before adding the data of certificate recipients manually or attaching them as a list.Next, one only needs to save and publish the certificate in order for the recipients to receive certificates directly to their email inboxes. Thanks to the Certifier platform, the user does not have to worry about using additional programs. The entire process of building certificates requires a minimal amount of time in comparison to creating a standard PDF document.&nbsp;<h3>🔒 Verifiability &amp; safety procedures</h3>The credibility of the document is one of the most vital components of the successful preparation of a certificate. Without it, the document does not possess any value.To begin with, PDF certificates are generally not issued by any institution. They do not possess a public key and, therefore, are not protected from fraud. For this reason, PDF certificates can be easily edited and forged.Moreover, PDF certificates are commonly shared by unauthorized people and modified. As a result of a large number of scams, an increasing number of institutions are now changing traditional PDF certificates to more secure alternatives such as <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/what-are-digital-credentials" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">digital credentials</a> with electronic signatures (that are in line with document signing regulations).In contrast, digital certificates are issued on secure platforms, so they cannot be altered. Once an institution issues an electronic document, it will be present in its register and can be easily tracked. Moreover, anyone with access to the certificate can verify it immediately. Apart from that, nobody can issue a fake certification that will pass as legitimate. <h3>🔑 Accessibility</h3>Another crucial difference that we can distinguish between digital and PDF certificates is their availability. Despite the widespread belief that PDF files are the most accessible document format, it turns out that the time needed for their preparation often exceeds that required to create the more flexible option of a digital certificate.What’s more, the electronic file is always present in the user's email inbox and ready for download after they have been made available, whereas, with PDF documents, there is more confusion. The problems start in particular when it is necessary to scan a regular document that has to be converted into a PDF file later.&nbsp;<h2>Digital certificate vs. PDF certificates: what to choose? { What to choose? }</h2>When making choices, we always have to weigh everything carefully so as not to rush into making the wrong decision. This is especially important when thinking about the development of your business and its reputation.However, after a thorough examination of the topic, we possess the opportunity to choose the most profitable option. In this case, we highly recommend following technological progress and trying out digital certificates.Nowadays, everything is rapidly developing, so we need newer and newer technical solutions. Currently, both certificate formats are available on the market, but we can assume that it is only a matter of time before only digital certificates will remain available.This is down to issues such as safety, comfort, and time-saving needs. Thanks to digital certificates, customers can save precious time and, in the blink of an eye, generate hundreds of safe types of certificates for school children, students, or participants of webinars.Apart from that, digital certificates are also a good choice for people who like being creative.

First, it is more secure, as it is much harder to forge or tamper with a digital certificate. Second, it is more convenient, as you can easily share and view it online.

Digital Certificate vs. PDF Certificates: Which is Better?

Creating certificates to reward people like students or employees is a great way to recognize and confirm all their hard work.&nbsp;But it takes time, skills, and (as later you’ll find out) tools to create memorable and effective – simply speaking modern certificates today.We share with you 9 essential elements modern certificates should include.Read on to find out what they are.<h2>What is a modern certificate? { What is a modern certificate }</h2>Modern certificates are no different from regular certificates regarding their purpose. They are designed to confirm the successful completion of a specific course or study. However, they differ in one fundamental aspect – the creative design.They are smart, well-thought-out, and usually digital (with the help of online certificate makers like <a href="https://certifier.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Certifier</a>). The modern certificate has all the necessary elements, with a twist of creativity for the best possible experience for certificate recipients.<h2 class="ql-align-justify">Why should you pay attention to certificate designs? { Why should you pay attention to certificate designs? }</h2>Modern and eye-catching certificates are often used as a reward for completing a task or achieving something, and they can also be used to show that someone has gained new skills.&nbsp;A vital part of them that certificate makers should take good care of is their contemporary design.Why is it important?Certificate modern designs are crucial today because they can:&nbsp;<h3>Improve your brand reputation and authority</h3>An <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/8-steps-to-effective-certificate-design" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">effectively created certificate design</a> can go a long way in making your brand look more professional in your field.&nbsp;On the other hand, a poorly prepared certificate will do the opposite. Many spelling and formatting mistakes will leave you with nothing other than:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">a bad impression</li><li class="ql-align-justify">a negative perception of you</li><li class="ql-align-justify">damaged authority</li></ul>For this reason, it’s vital that you pay close attention to what your award certificate designs look like, as well as what they include.<h3>Ensure excellent readability</h3>Moving on, caring about the looks of your simple certificates have another added benefit: excellent readability.&nbsp;And why is it a benefit?If you make your beautiful certificates clear and easy to read, your certificate recipients will love you for it.

They define the organization's standards and set the tone for expectations.Because of that, it’s important that your certificates are visually appealing.

Below you will find our recipe for the perfect modern certificates you need to create in 2025. Find out what your favorite certificate design template should contain.<h3>#1 Title</h3>Typically positioned on the top of the certificate design template, the title refers to the type of document you are issuing.When it comes to titles, it’s up to you how formal or creative you want to get.It may be as simple as the “Award” or “Certificate of Achievement''.&nbsp;You can also use longer titles incorporating your organization's name, together with something catchy. A good example is the “Award to Master Cook – <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/5-easiest-way-to-create-a-certificate-of-participation" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Certificate of Participation</a>.”Example: “Participation Certificate”<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1707836957/modern_certificate_design_elements_Certifier_blog_orange_template_1ba1868104.png" alt="Orange modern certificate template with sharp design elements.">[<a href="https://certifier.io/certificate-templates/modern-eye-catching-certificate-of-participation-template" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">Download free creative certificate template</a>]<h3>#2 Presentation line</h3>This part of a minimalist certificate design usually follows the title and may say things like:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">is awarded to</li><li class="ql-align-justify">is given to</li><li class="ql-align-justify">is hereby presented to</li></ul>or some other variation, followed by the full name of a recipient.As an alternative, it could read as follows: The certificate is presented by [FROM] to [RECIPIENT] on [DATE].Example: “This certificate is presented by the Certifier Company to Max Maxwell on the 19th of August 2024.”.<h3>#3 Recipient &amp; Issuer</h3>Moving on, let’s focus on certificate issuers and recipients.&nbsp;If you haven’t included information about these 2 in the presentation line, now’s the perfect chance to do it.&nbsp;Recipients are the people who receive certificates, like employees and students. A recipient or recipients can be one person, several persons, or even a group of people.On the other hand, issuers are companies, organizations, institutions, high-positioned people and other authorities. They create and hand out certificates to the people who earn them.These 2 are essential elements that you need to include, so don’t forget about them.Example: “For: Max Maxwell&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From: the Certifier Company”<h3>#4 Description</h3>Next comes the certificate description.&nbsp;What’s the certificate for? What skills were needed to achieve it? What’s the course or event called?The statement could be as simple as “a high score in a tennis tournament” or as long as a paragraph outlining specific achievements and skills.The best modern certificates are always personalized to reflect exactly why the recipient is receiving the recognition.Example: “For showing excellent soft and hard skills in project management, leading to a successful close of a deal that will benefit the whole company. The <a href="https://monday.com/blog/project-management/guide-to-project-management/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">importance of project management</a> has truly been understood and acted upon."<h3>#5 Date</h3>This one may seem obvious, but don’t forget to include a date on the certificate!Depending on the type of certificate you want to give to people, as well as the amount of space you’ve got, here are some ways you can write the date:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1662976247/creating_a_modern_certificate_design_elements_for_success_certifier_american_vs_british_dates_d3c60dbddf.png" alt="A table with American vs. British dates formats."><h3>#6 Signature</h3>Finally, it’s vital that you sign the elegant certificate with the right signature. A signature can include things like:<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">issuer’s first and last name written on a computer</li><li class="ql-align-justify">issuer’s department/organization name</li><li class="ql-align-justify">hand-written signature</li></ul><h3>#7 Border</h3>After preparing all the text information you wish to include in your customizable certificates, it’s time for some graphic elements.&nbsp;What visual elements do we have in mind here?Although not all certificates have frames or borders, they are a common addition. Borders or frames can have any shape or pattern that you decide to give them – the choice belongs completely to you.You can either design them on your own or use some professional templates that online certificate makers have to offer.<h3>#8 Seal&nbsp;</h3>Some certificates might have a seal affixed, for example a stick-on gold starburst seal. In other cases, it might just be an image of a seal printed directly on the certificate.Depending on your certificate type, such a seal can make the certificate look very professional and valuable. Thus, do consider it as an addition!<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1707836957/modern_certificate_design_elements_Certifier_blog_blue_template_412e11021d.png" alt="Blue modern certificate template with QR code."><h3>#9 Logo</h3>Last but not least - time to wrap the whole design up with your logo. Use a <a href="https://www.pixelcut.ai/cleanup-pictures" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">picture cleanup tool</a> if the quality of the logo is not ideal.It’s up to you where you want to place it. You may decide to apply it as a watermark all over the certificate or in one of the corners.&nbsp;Alternatively, the middle section in the lower part can also be a good spot.As long as everything creates a nice-looking and cohesive design – you know you’ve done a great job with all the elements.<h2>Checklist - Does your certificate have all modern elements? { Checklist }</h2>Keep our modern certificate checklist for later when you want to create an outstanding 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. Develop comprehensive individual course materials, textbooks, workbooks, and online resources.It’s also time to design the application process. Create a cloud application form that captures all necessary information about applicants (especially if you want to create your certificates based on this info).What to include in the application form for a certification program?<ul><li>Recipient’s name</li><li>Email address</li><li>Background and experience</li><li>Preferred course dates</li></ul><h3>Step 4: Pick the best certification software</h3>There’s no more need to do certificates manually. You can automate the whole process and mitigate the risk of errors – from generating certificates to their distribution.Look into a wide range of different certification software options. Compare features like user interface, scalability, data security, and cost. Test the software with a small group to ensure it meets your needs.<a href="https://certifier.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204); background-color: transparent;">Certifier</a> offers a range of features to make your certification process smooth and impressive.&nbsp;${{ section-cta-large-blue }}If you have a long list of participants, manually creating certificates can be time-consuming. With Certifier, you can easily send out certificates in bulk. Just prepare a CSV file with participant names and email addresses, choose a template or design your certificate, upload the list, and click send. It's that simple!<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1706732454/how_to_create_a_certification_program_Certifier_blog_certificate_maker_27d285f689.png" alt="Certifier certificate maker for certification programs."><h3>Step 5: Promote the course</h3>Promoting your certification course is crucial to attract the right participants and ensure its success. Craft your promotional messages to resonate with this audience, highlighting how your course will address their specific needs and goals.Use platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook to reach potential participants. Share engaging content like success stories, course snippets, and testimonials.Take it a step further and have larger goals in mind.Include a share button while you’re sending out the certificates. As a result, your participants will share their certificates on their social media feeds. It's an easy way to promote your certification courses through word-of-mouth. With Certifier, your participants get the recipient’s wallet view from which they can share the certificates with others (and you can track when they do!).<h3>Step 6: Track the progress</h3>Last but not least, maintaining the certification course is essential. It will involve periodically reviewing and updating the program content and monitoring compliance with the program's requirements.&nbsp;Additionally, it’s essential to ensure that certified individuals remain current in their knowledge and skills by requiring them to complete continuing education or recertification.By following these steps, you can create a certification program that benefits businesses and individuals. So, you may also find these tips helpful if you're about to start your own program or learn more about the process.<h2>Certification program – good practices { Good practices }</h2>We’ve got you covered in terms of good practices worth incorporating before and during organizing a certification program. Here are some crucial ones.<h3>Make it easy to get started</h3>It is always challenging to take the first step. So, it’s a good practice to make it as easy as possible for people to start your certification program. One way to do this is by having a clear and concise getting started guide. The guide should include a detailed description of the steps they need to follow and what resources are available to help them.<h3>Make it valuable</h3>Your certification program should be valuable to your company and the individuals who complete it. This means that you need to carefully consider what skills and knowledge are needed for someone to be successful in your industry.&nbsp;Before starting a certification program, identify the areas in which your workers need to improve, so your company and employees can benefit. Figuring it out will help you create the program by giving you hints and suggestions for enhancement.&nbsp;<h3>Make it affordable</h3>A certification program's affordability is another crucial aspect to consider. You want to ensure that your program’s price is accessible to as many people as possible.&nbsp;There are many ways to do this, such as offering discounts for early registrants or providing scholarships for those who cannot afford the program's total cost.<h3>Make it flexible</h3>Flexibility is another key consideration when creating digital courses.

How to Create a Certification Program? | Certifier

How to Create a Certification Program? 

Digital certificates are a great way to show respect for someone else's work. No matter if it is a certificate of participation, an achievement certificate for successful workshops, a language level, or a Linkedin certificate.It's always good to have some evidence of the achieved result. So, it is essential to create a batch of certificates initially and credibly. But how can you accomplish all of that?We have come up with a solution called <a href="https://certifier.io" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent;">Certifier</a>.<h2> </h2><h2>What are certificates? { What are certificates? }</h2>Certificates are digitally signed documents with specific data fields. Their purpose is to identify the person or organization that receives the certificate.They are needed to verify the authenticity of the training, course, corporate training, diploma, and many more. Certifications can be approved with special public keys and signed by the certificate authority. <h2>Why should you reach out for a certificate? { Why should you reach out for it? }</h2>Certificates have many functions and are mostly related to gaining knowledge and improving your experience. For example, obtaining a certification allows you to empower expertise or learn about a new area in advance. They’re a valuable addition to our CV when looking for a job for potential employers.Additionally, the knowledge you acquire during various types of training gives you the skills you need in the market you are in. They allow you to gain partnerships or new customers, strengthening the company's position and development. <h2>Why is it worth printing certificates? { Why is it worth? }</h2><ul><li>Printing certificates is an excellent way of showing attitude towards your job or profession, proving you have the required skills.</li><li>They can be an element of office design, distinguishing professionalism.</li><li>The certificates add prestige to the company and, at the same time, respect the client. As a result, customers feel safe because they know they are working with a professional and can trust you.</li></ul> <h2>Why is it important to print certificates in the right way? { Why is it important to set up them right? }</h2>Certificates reflect some skills. Whether the certificate relates to a job, university, workshop, or school, each must be professionally presented. It increases the chances that you become more reliable and trustworthy in the eyes of the people to whom you provide the digital certificate.&nbsp;Documents created improperly lose their value because people don't take them seriously. Suppose the paper is designed in an organized, transparent, and aesthetic manner. In that case, it will become your showpiece in the light of your new job, organization, or other decision-makers.It can be treated as a deciding factor when selecting a new employee. For example, we can compare this to a well-structured CV – if it meets the basic requirements, there is a greater chance that you will move to the next stage of recruitment.&nbsp;The excellent quality of the document will make it stay with you for many years without losing its value.So let's point out 8 main things you should keep in mind while designing a certificate.&nbsp; <h2>8 main things to keep in mind when printing a certificate { 8 things to keep in mind when printing }</h2>Before printing a certificate and hitting a "print button," you should consider various things to make everything proper and suitable.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/certifier/image/upload/v1718805629/certifier_blog_print_certificates_13495f5e0a.jpg" alt="A printer for printing certificates."><a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/a-white-and-black-printer-sitting-on-top-of-a-counter-CGnoRQZGWmw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">source</a><h3>1. Consult the form of the certificate with the recipient</h3>Before printing, you need to consult with the receiver in what form he needs it.For example, it may be enough to send the mails certificates via email. But there could be another choice like sending it directly via delivery man.&nbsp;&nbsp;Of course, online methods are faster and easier, but customers may prefer to receive award certificates in paper form and in person.<h3>2. Customize the appearance of the certificate to the achievement</h3>Not every template will be suitable for every type of certificate. For example, if we print company employees' course completion documents, they will look different from those focused on the ability to use a specific program or application.&nbsp;Each will feature a distinct design highlighting particular qualities or skills acquired before the delivery of the certificate.<a href="https://certifier.io" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Certifier</a> offers blank certificate design templates that you can adjust to your own needs – and create a certificate in minutes.<h3>3. Take care of the readability of the certificate</h3>Remember that the creative certificate should be scannable. The information you provide must be easy to find and legible. Avoid tiny fonts as they may go unnoticed. It is vital that you include the necessary data relevant to the character of the document.Consider avoiding different types of fonts – the writing should be consistent with each other. Also, bold the font of the date that should catch your attention the most.<h3>4. Include all needed information</h3>Similar to the point above, the data you include is crucial here. You should include information on the name and date of the event. In addition, list the specific achievements that the receiver has achieved during the particular course.&nbsp;Remember that the certificate should be concise – don't clutter it with too much information. A person displaying their digital certificate to someone else should ensure that it will fit for use.<h3>5. Take care of the quality of the certificate material</h3>Not only is the information in the certificate important, but the quality of the paper you have at your disposal will be critical here. Why? The better the quality, the longer the document will last.&nbsp;Thanks to this, the recipient won't have to worry that the displayed document will be unsuitable for showing. The manuscript should look professional to get an excellent first impression. You don't need to describe all the information, but pay attention to the details, for example, what material you offer.<h3>6. Consider adding a personal message to the certificate</h3>It is not necessary, but it can be considered sentimental and friendly.You can add a personal mini-note – for example, a quote referring to an event or situation that took place during the course and made the recipient somehow remember.<h3>7. Take care of the appropriate quality of photos</h3>Sometimes certificates require individual photos or images to be attached. If you decide to put a picture, remember that the quality must not differ from the quality of the paper.Everything must be consistent, legible, and look professional.&nbsp;<h3>8. Check for errors before printing</h3>Printing is the last thing that completes your certificate creation work. Remember to show the document to other employees after checking it yourself.&nbsp;Then you increase your chances of catching mistakes that you overlooked. This principle also works for creating different projects; other people can show you points that you ignored before. <h2>What is Certifier? { What is Certifier? }</h2>The Certifier is one of the top apps for making <a href="https://certifier.io/blog/creating-a-modern-certificate-design-elements-for-success" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">professionally-designed certificates</a>.

Print Certificates – 8 Things to Keep in Mind | Certifier

In this article, we’ve covered eight tips that will allow you to create an impressive certificate design. Here's how to do it.&nbsp;But before we get started, a few words about certificate design. <h2>Why is certificate design so important? { Why is certificate design so important? }</h2>There are a few reasons why it is essential.&nbsp;👉 First, certificate design reflects your brand and may work as a business card. For example, if you have a well-designed certificate, it will show that you are a professional organization or company.&nbsp;👉 Secondly, it can make a lasting impression on the recipient. A well-designed certificate will be remembered long after it is received.&nbsp;👉 Finally, you can use it for marketing purposes. If you have a beautiful certificate, you use it to promote your brand or company. Also, with a solid tool for designing certificate templates, it is possible to monitor its social media performance, meaning how many people share them or add them to their LinkedIn profile. <h2>What are some of the best certificate design principles? { Best certificate design principles }</h2>There are a few crucial principles to keep in mind when designing a certificate. You might make a lasting impression with all of those so that recipients would remember your brand for a long time!&nbsp;<h3>#1 Make your certificate professional and clean</h3>First, make sure the design is professional and clean. A clean look might influence the first impression, so pay attention to the font sizes, photos, and colors. Combine all the elements in a coherent whole so that it would look streamlined and organized. The last thing you want is a cluttered or messy design. The good news is that you don’t have to be a designer to create such a document.&nbsp;<h3>#2 Use high-quality images&nbsp;</h3>Low-quality images would make your document look rather amateurish. So if you’re looking for free visual elements on the internet, try to select high-quality ones. When a certificate design is already decorative, look for images that would not clatter it. Visuals are great and might add a personal touch and originality.<h3>#3 Ensure the layout is easy to read and fully legible&nbsp;</h3>To make your certificate easy to read, consider how you would like it to look first. Then, even a quick plan would be helpful when designing the layout.&nbsp;A good indicator is when you can quickly scan your document and find all the necessary information at first glance. And if you’re a little biased, ask someone to help you by taking a look at your certificate and suggesting changes.&nbsp;<h3>#4 Use typography for an emphasis</h3>In short, typography design is the art of arranging type to make written language readable. You make the message aesthetically pleasing and readable.&nbsp;Typography involves:&nbsp;<ul><li>choosing typefaces&nbsp;</li><li>point size</li><li>line length&nbsp;</li><li>line spacing</li><li>letter spacing&nbsp;</li></ul>and more. Mind using typography while designing your certificate template.Moreover, typography is great when you want to emphasize a piece of important information, such as the recipient's name, company name, or why they are being rewarded. Don’t be afraid to make some more extensive fonts, but keep it organized and readable.<h3>#6 Design a printable certificate</h3>While designing certificate templates, make sure they are easy to print. Even if you plan to create only digital certificates, making them printable is a good practice. Take care you deliver a suitable format for printing and high-quality for those who want to hang their document on the wall.&nbsp;<h3>#7 Use color to add visual interest and contrast</h3>Not only fonts but also colors are critical players in the game. For visual livening up, try to use some colors and draw attention to the crucial information. It is also a good idea to add some colors to, for example, an award certificate that matches your logo or refers to your course's topic. There are many color schemes and variations, so hopefully, you will find something you will be happy about.For example, if you organize a water rescue course, you can make your certification in blue tones, so it refers to the water theme.<h3>#8 Use a certificate template</h3>You can use certificate templates found on the internet since there are so many of them. However, not each of them is editable and high-quality. Also, some of the available pre-made templates cannot be customized and, unfortunately, are not original. Therefore, making an impression with a commonly used template is barely possible.&nbsp;You'll stand out with such nuances and well-thought details, and your modern certificate will make a lasting impression!
