From Training Session to Professional Certificate in 30 Seconds

A client completed fire safety training. Instead of spending hours in Word or paying a designer £50-100, we used CertifyMe. 30 seconds later, we had a professional, print-ready certificate.

The Challenge

For UK training providers, tradespeople offering courses, and consultants providing certifications, creating professional certificates is essential but time-consuming.

The traditional options are all problematic:

Word templates: Fiddly formatting, unprofessional results, hours of tweaking

Graphic designers: £50-100 per certificate, 2-3 day turnaround

Online certificate makers: Generic templates, watermarks, monthly subscriptions

DIY design tools: Steep learning curve, still takes 30-60 minutes per certificate

We needed a way to create professional, print-ready certificates instantly—without design skills or expensive software.
