Table of contents
Administrate provides one-click generation of certificates for events using a standard template. By default, the logo you upload in Company Settings is automatically applied to the template. If you need a fully customized certificate, you can request a custom certificate build.
Requirements
If you want to customize the standard certificate, contact Support at support@getadministrate.com or speak with your implementation or account manager and request the Custom Certificate Request Form. This form provides the most current instructions and will ask for:
- a background image
- instructions for which fields should be merged onto the certificate
- fonts, formatting, and color requirements
Costs
Ask your implementation or account manager about the current rate for certificate customization, or get in touch and we’ll help create the certificates you need .
Certificate generation page
To open the Generate Certificates page, go to an Event’s Students tab and select Options > Certificates.
Email Certificates and Generate Certificates only apply to students marked Yes in the Selected column.
- Each student has a per-row toggle.
- Each page shows up to 50 students.
- You can only generate/email certificates for the students visible on the current page.
- This Page toggles all students on the current page to Yes; None toggles all to No.
If your event has multiple pages of students, you must select/deselect students on each page separately. Selections do not carry across pages.
FAQs
Q: We have a licensed font. Can that be used on our certificates?
A: Check the font license to confirm it permits embedding in commercially sold products.
Q: We have a font provided as part of an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. Can that be used?
A: Adobe Creative Cloud fonts can be used only if you provide a flattened background image that includes all fixed text rendered in that font.
Administrate can then place merge fields (for example, course title and student name) using a different font with an appropriate license.
