Issue a certificate

You can issue a certificate manually from the registry or from course completion if the assignment is connected to a course.

Issue manually

1. 1Open the Certificate registry.
2. 2Click the action for issuing a new certificate.
3. 3Select a standalone assignment.
4. 4Select the participant.
5. 5Check or fill in the certificate title and recipient name.
6. 6Set issue date, training dates, validity, and notes.
7. 7If the form shows a trainee signature, collect it now or leave it for later.
8. 8Save and issue the certificate.

Issue from course completion

1. 1Open the course completions view.
2. 2Find the participant who completed the required lessons.
3. 3Click the action for issuing a certificate.
4. 4Select the assignment connected to that course.
5. 5Check the data loaded from the completion.
6. 6Fill in missing dates or notes.
7. 7Issue the certificate.

If a certificate has already been issued for that completion, Skillsive shows the existing document and blocks issuing another one from the same place.

What happens after issuing

If the template does not require a trainee signature, the certificate is finalized with a digital signature automatically.

If the template requires a trainee signature, the document waits for that signature. After the trainee signs, Skillsive finalizes the certificate digitally.

After issuing, the certificate appears in the registry. There you can download the PDF, check signing status, verify the document, or run administrative actions.
