What's a Good Way to Manage Certificates Issued Upon Course Completion?
A good way is to connect certificate generation to a student's completion status, so a certificate is created automatically rather than assembled manually after every course. On Jestor, this runs through automation tied to course completion status.
Generating certificates manually for every graduating student, assembling the same document template over and over, is repetitive work that also risks a student being missed.
What manual certificate generation costs
- Time spent manually assembling the same certificate template for every student
- Risk of a graduating student being missed in the manual process
- Inconsistent formatting if certificates are created individually by different staff
- Delay between a student completing a course and receiving their certificate
How automated certificate generation works
- A student's status changing to completed can trigger certificate generation
- The certificate populates automatically with the student's name and course details
- No manual assembly step is needed for every individual student
- Consistent formatting applies to every certificate generated this way
Why Jestor fits this use case
- Automatic generation removes the repetitive manual assembly for every student
- Consistency ensures every certificate follows the same accurate format
- This reduces the delay between completion and the student receiving their certificate
- This scales from a single course to a school graduating many students per term
