Creating Group Certificates
In Footsteps 2 you are able to celebrate each child's accomplishments by designing and awarding certificates. These can be printed or emailed, enabling you to share the child's success with their parents/carers.
To create a certificate for a group of children, do the following:
- Go to the Achievements' page:
- Locate the required children by scrolling through the list or using the search or filter tools.
- Select the checkbox next to each child you wish to award the certificate to.
- When you select more than one child a footer will pop-up at the bottom of your screen with a ‘Create Group Certificate' button:
- Continue selecting the checkboxes of all required children and then click/tap on the ‘Create Group Certificate’ button to open the certificate builder:
There are 12 certificate designs to choose from and each design is available in 3 colour schemes. - Click/tap on the expand button in the top right-hand corner of each certificate design to see a larger preview:
- You can choose the colour-scheme of the certificate by clicking/tapping on the 3 coloured dots. For example:
- Once you have chosen a certificate design, click/tap on the 'Customise' button.
- Enter the reason for awarding the certificate and the name of the person awarding it.
The certificate preview will show "This certificate has been awarded to Child Name" - the system will automatically add each child's name to the certificates once you have finished customising them. For example: - If you want to include your logo/company branding onto the certificate, ensure the 'Branding' toggle is in the 'on' position:
- Once you are happy with the certificate, click/tap on the 'Done' button to save it. The confirmation page will be displayed:
- You will have the option to either print a copy of the certificate, save a copy or email a copy to the child's parents/carers.
Exporting the certificate from this page will save you time as you are able to print, save and email a separate certificate for each child at the same time. - Click/tap on the 'Done' button to return to the Achievements page.
