but, the bigger the screen, the better
Why We Recommend a Larger Screen
Issuing certificates is serious business. You are providing evidence that will last, and accuracy matters.
Each certificate includes participant names, training hours, and course details — all of which should be checked carefully.
On a small screen, it’s easier to overlook something or make a typing error, and limited bandwidth can occasionally interrupt the process.
Using a laptop or desktop computer helps you see every detail clearly and ensures your certificates are complete and professional.
Using Open CPD on Your Phone
If you simply want to check certificate details, verify a badge, or view your account, your phone works perfectly.
For quick access, you can add Open CPD to your Home Screen so it opens full-screen like an app.
On Android (Chrome):
Open app.opencpd.com in Chrome.
Tap the ⋮ menu (top right).
Choose Add to Home screen, then Add.
On iPhone (Safari):
Open app.opencpd.com in Safari.
Tap the Share icon (the square with an upward arrow).
Choose Add to Home Screen, then Add.
You’ll now see the Open CPD icon on your phone — tap it anytime to open the platform directly.
Connectivity Reminder
If your internet connection is unstable, please wait until it’s steady before issuing or sending certificates.
The system relies on live verification and secure transmission, so a stable connection ensures that all certificate data is processed correctly.
