How come printing certificates is still essential these days? 

Do you ever wonder why it's necessary to produce hard copies of certain documents such as degrees or professional certs, rather than just electronically sending them through email (which can be easily overlooked)? 

The Value of Certifications

This may surprise some people, but yes! Skills are the global currency in today’s economies. With increasing competition for jobs, pay increases, and academic success, certifications are more important than ever. 

Certs offer hope and open doors to new opportunities and increase a person’s market value. 

It’s also a great way to show appreciation from event organisers to everyone who supported or contributed to their marketing events.

How To Design Certificate

Here are some handy tips for you out there who are thinking to start printing certificates for any good reasons:

Step 1: Follow Layout Guidelines

You should follow certain rules when producing certificates. For example, your certificate layout designs have to follow protocols and guidelines set by an authority figure in the specific field of expertise - or by the company you work for or the school that issued them! You can find more information on this topic by searching online.

Step 2: Must-have Checklist

i) Information about the certificate issuer:

1. Name of your organization
2. Your Company logo
3. Teacher's name (if applicable)
4. Signature (if applicable)
5. Website (if applicable)

ii) Information about the recipient:

1. Full name of a recipient ([recipient. name] attribute)
2. Course/program/webinar title
3. Score/mark
4. Additional information about your program

iii) Information about the issued credential:

1. Document Title: certificate, diploma, confirmation, etc
2. Issue date
3. Expiration date (if applicable)
4. Certificate ID (if applicable)

Step 3: Choosing The Right Printing Materials

Choosing the right paper material is very essential when printing important documents. The thicker and textured paper is more appropriate to make your certificate printing feel and look more professional.
