Dynamic smart tags automatically pull the student’s full name, completion date, course title, and unique ID onto the certificate when generated.

How does the certificate verification feature work?

Every certificate includes a unique ID and scannable QR code. Employers or admins can scan it or enter the code on your site to verify its authenticity.
