Tips​

  • Use Descriptive Names: Give your certificates clear, descriptive names (such as "Safety Compliance Certificate 2024") so they are easy to identify when assigning them to courses or learning paths.
  • Leverage Tags for Organization: Group your certificates by department, language, or topic using the Tags tab. This makes it much easier to search and filter your media library as it grows.
  • Resolve Preview Issues: If the PDF preview fails to load, try updating your web browser or checking your browser's extension settings to ensure PDF viewing is enabled.
