Does Udemy Business provide certifications through accredited institutions?
Udemy Business is a National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) Certified Partner and offers courses eligible for Continued Professional Education (CPE) credits. Outside of our NASBA partnership, we do not offer additional certifications through accredited institutions.
Can I change the formatting of my certificate of completion? Or add an image?
Currently, certificates are created using a template, and there is no way to change the formatting for them at this time.
I finished my course but I still can’t access my certificate of completion. How come?
To receive your certificate of completion, each curriculum item must be marked as complete. Double-check the course curriculum in the course player to make sure each lecture and course item has a checkmark beside it and is marked as complete.
My lecture or course item (quiz, practice test) is not getting marked as complete. How do I fix this?
Learn how to mark a lecture or course item as complete.
I’ve completed my course and the trophy has appeared, but when I click on it, I can’t see a certificate. Why?
Occasionally the system may need a few moments to generate a certificate of completion after a course has been completed. Wait a couple of minutes and then try clicking on the trophy again. You may also need to refresh the page, or clear your cache and cookies, in order to see your certificate.
I need to change the name or language of my certificate.
Learn how to change the language or name on your certificate of completion.
How can I share my certificate?
It is at the discretion of your organization’s administrators whether or not learners can share their certificates on social media platforms. Organizations that don’t allow this feature will not have the ‘Share’ option on their certificates.
Sharing via a browser: If you're accessing Udemy Business on a browser, and if your organization allows it, you will find a Share button on the right-hand side of your certificate. When clicked, the option will provide sharing links for Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
Sharing via the Udemy Business mobile app: If you’re accessing your account via the Udemy Business mobile app, and your organization permits sharing certificates, the Share feature will appear below your certificate. You can use the option to share your certificate with various apps on your device.How is the course’s number of hours determined?
The number of hours listed on the certificate of completion is based on the course video hours at the most recent completion. If an instructor adds lectures after a learner completed the course, they can complete the new lectures and regenerate the certificate to reflect the longer course duration.
Do I need to complete the lectures in order?
No. You can receive your certificate of completion once all the lectures and course items are marked as complete.
Do practice test courses offer a certificate of completion?
Practice test courses do not offer a certificate of completion (please note: custom courses for organizations, which only feature practice test lectures, can offer a certificate of completion if enabled by the course creator).
I cannot pass the last assessment of a Continuing Professional Education (CPE) course because it's not showing which questions I got right or wrong. Can I still get a certificate for the course?
This CPE Qualified Assessment will not give you the option to review the answers to the questions you submitted. For more information, please view our Help Center article on CPE course requirements.
If I retake a course I completed previously, will the completion date be updated?
No. The completion date on a certificate will be associated with the date that you first completed the course. One exception to this is when a course adds new lectures. If these new lectures are completed, the certificate of completion will then automatically regenerate with the new date.
