Challenge
Young Professionals being UK and Ireland’s leading student network, helps thousands of students to accelerate their careers in apprenticeship and work experience programs. To achieve this, they need to issue digital certificates for their conferences, work experience programs, apprenticeships, webinars, and other events that can help students build credibility to get employed. However, issuing digital certificates in bulk can be a daunting and tedious task, especially when dealing with large numbers of attendees, different types of events, and various certificate designs. Young Professionals faced the following major pain points during issuing certificates in bulk:
Scalability issues: Young Professionals had to issue tens of thousands of certificates every year for their various events and programs. This was a huge challenge in terms of scalability and cost, as they had to find or build a platform that could handle such a volume of certificates without compromising on quality, security, or speed.
Difficulty in verification and sharing: Young Professionals wanted to ensure that their certificates could be easily verified and shared by their attendees on social media platforms like LinkedIn. However, they faced difficulties in complying with important digital credentials standards for their verifiability. They also had no way to track or measure the reach and impact of their certificates across various platforms or networks.
Branding: Young Professionals felt finding a platform that could help them issue certificates with their own branding and host them on their own website as a challenge as available solutions offered white-labelling to a certain extent only. They wanted the certificates to look like a native part of their website and not like a third-party service they relied on. They also wanted the certificates to look as professional as possible.
“We have been working with Certopus for a few years and have been so impressed with their certificate issuing platform. We run many events and work experience programmes for students and it's great to easily issue certificates on mass scale at once to our students which they in turn share on LinkedIn and use on their resumes. Raj and his team are highly responsive and support us whenever we need this.”
