Add a Certificate

Use this process to record a new professional certification along with its document and details on your profile.

1. Open Account Settings.
2. Go to My Settings.
3. Select the Certifications tab.
4. Click Add Certification.
5. In the New Certification panel, upload the certificate document. Supported file types are PDF, JPEG, or PNG. Providing a certificate file is required.
6. Select the Regulatory domain. (Note: the certificate type list is locked until you pick a domain.)
7. Fill in the following fields:

• Certificate name
• Certificate type
• Certificate number (optional)
• Issuing body (required, must be at least 6 characters)
• Issue date (optional)
• Expiry date (optional)

8. Click Add to save the new certificate.

If your organisation has only one regulatory domain, it will be selected automatically.

View and Download Certificates

You can review the certificates currently on file or download their documents.

1. Open Account Settings.
2. Go to My Settings.
3. Select the Certifications tab.
4. Each certificate is listed by its certificate type and number. If a certificate has no number, N/A is shown instead.
5. Click a certificate to open the Edit Certification panel to view or update its details.
6. To download the certificate document, click the Download action next to the certificate.

If you have no certificates on file yet, this tab will show an empty state with an Add Certification prompt.

Edit or Delete a Certificate

Update details or replace the document for a certificate, or remove a certificate you no longer need.

1. Open Account Settings and navigate to My Settings.
2. Select the Certifications tab.
3. Click the certificate you want to edit to open the Edit Certification panel.
4. To update fields or replace the certificate file, make the changes and click Update.
5. To delete the certificate, click Delete certificate and confirm the action.

Important notes:

• Deleting a certificate is permanent and cannot be undone.
• If you do not upload a new file when editing, the existing document remains on file. A certificate must always have a file attached.
• Clearing the Expiry date is allowed and will be saved.
• The Issue date is required. If you clear it and try to save, an error will prevent the update. Instead of clearing, choose an alternative valid date.
• If you select a new file, it is uploaded even if the save fails due to missing issue date.
