Certificate Management

​

Certificates

Configure course completion certificate templates. The platform supports automatic generation, positionable dynamic fields, and public validation via a unique code.

​

Certificate templates

Each course can have its own certificate template with a custom design.

​

Create a template

​

Certificate images

​

Dynamic fields

Fields are visually positioned over the certificate image. For each field, you configure:

​

Automatic generation

When the auto_generate option is enabled on the template:

1. The student completes all lessons in the course
2. The system automatically detects the completion
3. A certificate is generated with the student’s data
4. The student receives a notification that the certificate is ready
5. Optionally, an email is sent with the details

​

Public validation

Each certificate receives a unique alphanumeric code that can be used for validation.

​

How to validate

Anyone can verify the authenticity of a certificate:

1. Go to the platform’s public validation page
2. Enter the certificate code
3. The system displays the certificate data if it is valid

​

Information displayed during validation

• Student name
• Course name
• Start and completion dates
• Validation code
• Certificate images (front and back)

​

Validation security

• Search is done by code (case-insensitive)
• Revoked or expired certificates return an error
• Rate limiting of 10 validations per IP per minute to prevent abuse
• Public access (no authentication required)

​

Certificate status

​

Revoke a certificate

Administrators can revoke a certificate when necessary. The revocation records:

• Who revoked it
• When it was revoked
• Reason for revocation

​

Email notification

When a certificate is generated, the system can send an email to the student containing:

• Student name
• Course name
• Completion date
• Validation code

The email uses the certificate_ready template configurable in the email templates.
