Your platform already does a lot. Learners finish, a neat certificate appears with their name, the course title and your logo, and nobody has to lift a finger.

That certificate is a strong start. With a few additions it can do far more: say what the course set out to achieve and what the learner can now do, carry your CPD accreditation, and let an employer, insurer or HR team check it in seconds rather than take it on trust.

In this session we put real LMS certificates side by side with a verifiable one and go through each difference. We look at Tutor LMS, Arlo and Kajabi specifically, and show how to keep your platform exactly as it is while the certificate at the end does more of the work.

No pitch. Straightforward answers from a team that works with training providers every day.

Who is this for?

Training providers and course creators who already issue certificates through their LMS or course platform, such as Tutor LMS, Arlo or Kajabi. Your certificates look professional, and you want them to carry the same weight with employers, insurers and buyers as the training behind them.

What will you get?

  • What employers, insurers and procurement teams look for when they receive a certificate, and how much of it a standard LMS certificate already covers.
  • The additions that turn a good-looking certificate into a verifiable credential: aims, skills and outcomes, CPD hours, accreditation, and a link anyone can check.
  • A side-by-side look at certificates from popular platforms, including Tutor LMS, Arlo and Kajabi, next to a verifiable achievement page.
  • How to keep your LMS and add Open CPD certificates to it: a plugin, Zapier or the API, and which suits your setup.
  • A quick self-assessment: how much more could your current certificate be doing?

What others are saying

“I registered thinking I'd sit in the background and listen. Ended up asking three questions and came away with a clear action plan.”

Daniel, Training Consultant, UK

“Open CPD's sessions are the opposite of a webinar. Someone actually engaged with my situation rather than presenting at me.”

Priya, L&D Manager, Australia

“Short enough to commit to, specific enough to be useful. I walked away knowing exactly what needed changing.”

Saoírse, Independent Trainer, Ireland

“I wasn't sure this was relevant to me. Thirty minutes in I realised it was exactly what I'd been missing.”

Marcus, Course Designer, South Africa

Frequently asked questions

Is my LMS certificate enough for CPD?

It is a good start: it records that someone finished. A CPD certificate that holds up also says what the course set out to achieve, carries the CPD hours and accreditation, and can be verified independently. We show the difference in the session.

Do I have to leave my LMS to use Open CPD certificates?

No. Your courses, learners and checkout stay where they are. Open CPD connects to your platform and issues the certificate when a learner completes.

Which platforms does Open CPD work with?

Any platform, through manual upload or the API, and many directly: the Open CPD WordPress plugin covers Tutor LMS, LearnDash, WooCommerce and MemberPress, Zapier connects platforms such as Kajabi, and workflow webhooks connect CRM-based platforms. The full list is on our LMS integrations page.

Should I switch off my LMS's own certificate?

Usually yes, once Open CPD is connected, so learners receive one certificate rather than two. We can match the Open CPD certificate design to your platform's look.

Is this really free?

Yes. No charge and no sales pitch. We run these sessions to help training providers build better credentials. You'll get practical information whether or not you're an Open CPD customer.

Will there be a recording?

Yes. Register and we'll send you the link after the session, whether you attend live or not.

Do I need to be an Open CPD customer?

No. Many attendees are exploring CPD for the first time or comparing options. Others are already using Open CPD but want input on specific questions. All are welcome.

What do I need to prepare?

Nothing. Come with questions if you have them, or just listen in. The sessions are practical and conversational, no background knowledge required.
