Your certificate
How your certificate is issued, what's on it, and how anyone can verify it.
How it’s issued
When you finish a course — meeting the seat-time requirement and passing the required quizzes and final exam — your certificate is generated automatically and emailed to you as a PDF. It’s also saved to your account.
What’s on it
- Your legal name
- The course title and credit hours
- Your completion date
- The instructor of record
- A unique verification code
These values are locked in at the moment of issuance, so your certificate is a permanent, accurate record.
Verifying a certificate
Every certificate has a public verification code. Anyone — an employer, the board — can confirm it’s genuine at the verification page, no login required. This is how a clinic or auditor checks that a certificate is real and unaltered.
Wrong name on your certificate?
Your certificate uses your legal name from your profile. If it’s wrong, contact support — certificates can be reissued with the corrected information.
