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.
