In the Certificate Builder, there is another tab Link Certificates, where you can assign your certificates to certain categories and courses.

You will open the Certificate Builder.
You can use a premade template, select one from the left side of the builder and customize it according to your branding requirements.
To create a new certificate, click on the + sign.
Then choose the certificate's orientation: horizontal or vertical.
You can add a background by clicking on "Select image".
In the open window, you can upload a background from your files.
After adding a background, go to the Elements section.
Click on the element and place these elements as desired within the Certificate builder.
You can further personalize the element by adjusting the font, size, color and alignment, and applying styling options like bold or italic.
Add other elements to create your desired certificate.
Name your template and click on the save button at the bottom of the page.
After saving, use the preview button to view your newly created certificate.
This is how it will look for your students after downloading the certificate:
To link a certificate to courses, go to the Link Certificate.
Next, you'll see three tabs where you can assign a default certificate, one to the categories or courses.
To assign another default certificate, click Change.
Choose a template you want to make default and save the changes.
You have changed the default certificate. Your students will get this default certificate in courses where you didn't specify the certificate.
In the Categories tab, click Set certificate on the category you want to set your own certificate.
From the certificate choose a template and save changes.
So, you have set a certificate to the specific course and it can be unlinked and changed.
