For a certificate of participation we simple attack it to The key for us is to tie it to the evaluation so we get a better evaluation completion rate! We use survey monkey for evaluation and than after the submit there is a way to force to another page We have the certificate on a private page that no one can see on our website. Upon completion of the evaluation they are forced to the certificate and will need to print and or save it. Make sure they know that they will get it upon completion or many of them will tell you they have no way to print or save. I give a tips on how to "print" as a PDF and email it to themselves so they can print later.
It is a little more complicated for our State credit as we have to verify full participation. We have a question on our evaluation that asks if they should need State credit to enter their ID number because our evaluations are non identifiable. Than we pull all of those ID numbers, verify full attendance and participation and email that certificate out.
Hope this helps!

Good Morning,
If I am doing the training or virtual meeting, etc. myself, I have certificates that I made myself off of pinterest or microsoft publisher. You can adapt them to whatever you need and even add little symbols that are pertinent to the subject being taught.
Hope this helps
