What Are Teachable Certificates of Completion for?
You can provide certificates of completion as long as you are subscribed to the Teachable Pro, Pro +, or Business plan. Unfortunately, this feature is not available on the free and Basic plans.
Teachable certificates of completion offer a way to reward your students for their hard work.
When your students complete a course, they can receive one of these certificates. Each one contains a unique serial number and can be downloaded if required.
These certificates also offer a convenient way for students to provide proof to others that they have completed a course.
What Are Some Examples of Teachable Certificates of Completion?
There are currently three different templates that you can use to create certificates of completion:
Template one is a patterned design with all the essential information included.
Template two provides a plain white certificate.
Template three is the same as template two but with the addition of a thick border.
For those with LIQUID/HTML knowledge, it is also possible to create a custom-designed certificate for Teachable.

Step 3: In the editing screen, customize your certificate by uploading your logo and adding a title and text. You can also upload a signature if you wish.
