Steps to Follow
Complete the course
Finish all of the course's required content. Depending on the course type, this means completing every required lesson, passing the certification test, or having your attendance marked for a class course. The certificate becomes available only after the course reaches its completed (passed) state.
Submit feedback if it is required
If the course has mandatory feedback enabled, the certificate stays locked until you submit it. Open the course page, use the Feedback option, answer the questionnaire, and click Submit. Once feedback is recorded, the certificate becomes accessible.
Open the certificate
Go to the page where your certificate is displayed, such as the course page or your assignments view. When all requirements are met, the completion certificate control becomes active. If it appears grayed out, a requirement is still outstanding.
Download the certificate
Select the Download button on the certificate to save it to your device. The certificate downloads as a PDF file that you can open, print, or keep for your records.
Share the certificate (optional)
If you want to share your achievement, use the share option on the certificate page to copy the certificate link or post it. When the link is opened, the certificate page loads in a new browser tab so others can view it.
Conclusion
Your KC Library course completion certificate is generated as soon as you meet a course's requirements, including any mandatory feedback. From the certificate page you can open it, download a PDF copy, and share the certificate link, giving you a lasting record of what you have completed.
