I’d like to use RegOnline to produce course completion certificates for my attendees. How do I use the name badge system to create certificates?

Solution:

Creating a certificate, diploma, or other special document for your attendees is very similar to creating any other badge or label – you just select the badge stock, fields and formatting, and so on, and then run/print the badge whenever needed. To create a new certificate for your attendees:

1. On the Events tab, click the Title of your event. The Event Dashboard will display.
2. Click the Labels and Badges link, then click the Add Label/Badge button. 
3. Enter a Label Name and then select the Label Stock you are using. (You’ll most likely need to select a stock that is 8.5” x 11”.) If you do not see your label stock listed, click the New button to enter your stock's measurements and specifications. 
4. Add an image (such as a company logo, etc.) to your certificate, if you’d like:
   • Click the Add Image button. The Image Source window displays.
   • Select your image from the dropdown list, or click the Add Image button to upload your file.
   • Click Save to add the image to your certificate. The image displays in the upper left corner of the certificate, and you can use the box handles at the corners of the field to reposition it if needed.
5. Add any standard text to the certificate (such as “This is to certify that:”):
   • Click the Add Text button. 
   • Enter the text you would like to add in the Label Value field, select your formatting, and then click Save. Again, the field displays in the upper left corner and you can use the handles to reposition (top left) or resize (bottom right) the text.
6. Add your attendee information to the certificate:
   • Click the Add Field button. 
   • Select the field you would like to add in the Field Value, select your formatting, and then click Save. 
   • Reposition and/or resize the field as needed.
7. When you have entered all desired fields, click Save and Exit.
