To configure certification expiry
- Log in to your Administration portal, as a Global administrator or an admin with the Certification administrator role.
- On the NAVIGATION pane, click Certifications.
- On the Results page, click the certification to be configured.
INFO: You can use the Search option to find the certification that you've added.
- On the Awarding page, in the EXPIRATION panel, specify the required expiry mode, then click Save. The available options are:
- Certificates do not expire. Any certificate that is awarded to a learner will not have an expiry date and will never expire.
- Certificate expiration is managed externally. The lms will not manage the expiry of the certification. Any certificate that is awarded to a learner will not have an expiry date and will not not automatically expire.
- Certificates expire a fixed interval after the certificate is awarded. The learner's certificate will have an expiry date, which is relative to the date the certificate was awarded. In the CERTIFICATES WILL EXPIRE AFTER field, specify the expiry period as a number of Days, Weeks, Months or Years.
Optionally, select the Send notifications to learners when their certifications expire option, if you would like to send the learner an email notification when the certification expires. - Certificates expire on a fixed date. The learner's certificate will expire on a fixed date. In the CERTIFICATES WILL EXPIRE ON field, specify the required expiry date.
Optionally, select the Send notifications to learners when their certifications expire option, if you would like to send the learner an email notification when the certification expires. - Certificates expire on a fixed day of the year. The learner's certificate will expire on a fixed day each year. In the MONTH and DAY fields, specify the required annual expiry date.
- Allow a grace period prior to the fixed date. Optionally, enable a grace period, prior to the expiry day. Learners first certifying within this period will be awarded certificates expiring the following year, rather on the expiry day in the current year. This feature should be used to prevent learners that are awarded the certification just prior to the expiry day, immediately having to re-certify.
- Send notifications to learners when their certifications expire. Optionally, select this if you would like to send your learners an email notification when the certification expires.
- Certificates do not expire. Any certificate that is awarded to a learner will not have an expiry date and will never expire.
