Certificates

A certificate is the reward at the end of a course — proof a learner finished, which many buyers genuinely want. You design it, set what earns it, and PersonaCart issues it automatically when a learner qualifies.

Pro Certificates are part of the course tools on a paid plan.

How certificates work​

You build a certificate template — its look and the text on it — and set the condition to earn it, usually completing the course (and passing any required quizzes). When a learner meets the condition, the certificate is issued to them automatically, and there's a record of every one issued.

What happens — and what doesn't​

  • Certificates are issued automatically when a learner meets the completion condition — you don't hand them out one by one.
  • Every issued certificate is logged, so there's a verifiable record of who earned what and when.
  • The earning condition ties back to course progress and quizzes, so a certificate means the learner actually finished.
How does a learner earn a certificate?

By meeting the condition you set — usually completing the course and passing any required quizzes. When they qualify, PersonaCart issues the certificate automatically.

Is there a record of issued certificates?

Yes. Every certificate issued is logged, giving you a verifiable ledger of who earned each one and when.
