Allowing Learners to Claim Their Own Certificates in Open edX

In most cases, you’ll want learners to be able to claim certificates for themselves on the progress page. For self-paced courses, this is already done! You’re good to go. For instructor-led courses, however, you’ll need to Enable Student-Generated Certificates.

To allowing learners to claim their own certificates, do the following steps:

1. Login to LMS as admin or staff.

2. On the learning site dashboard page, open one of the existing courses.

3. On the course introduction page, click on View Course.

4. Click Instructor, and the Certificates tab (which will only appear once certificates are set up). From there, it’s just one button to enable them.

Select ok or yes when a pop up asks if you are sure you want to activate the feature.
