What’s inside
A clear division of labour: hosting, certificates, badges and verification are on us. Writing your aims, skills and outcomes, and standing behind your training, stays with you.
Licence to use the “Powered by Open CPD” marks, a sample achievement page to show learners, and a ready-made slide deck explaining how to share a badge on LinkedIn or a CV.
A structural mirror for your course profile, not an endorsement, checking aims, skills, outcomes and CPD points against best practice. Free and paid tiers available.
A free AI tool that drafts aims, skills and outcomes from your existing training materials. You review and approve every draft before it goes live.
Online, in person, webinar, hybrid, conference, and beyond, including self-guided programmes, 1:1 coaching, and interactive online training.
Completion, attendance, and participation templates across five visual styles, always carrying your name and logo, never ours.
Add a partner's name and logo alongside your own, per course or automatically via a partnership template.
Individually, in a cohort via CSV upload, or automatically from your LMS or Zapier, with supporting documents attached where you need them.
One credit issues one certificate, valid for 12 months. Subscriptions roll over unused credits monthly; UK charities receive double credits.
Self-serve guides on our support site, a weekly open Q&A webinar, or a 15-minute demo to walk through your own courses with us.
