StratCom has provided the University of Illinois’ Accredible instance with an array of templates for users to copy and customize. For information on how those templates should be used, please consult the Office for Professional Education for the most up-to-date information.

Copying and Customizing a Template if you have Design Edit Permissions
(You’ll see the Designs tab at the top of the screen if you have this permission)

1. Navigate to the Designs tab at the top of the screen.
2. Click “Create New Certificate” or “Create New Badge” at the top right of the screen.
3. Select the template you’d like to use from the MyDesigns tab in the Design Edit interface.
4. Make any adjustments you need (note that since you clicked “Create New” you will not be modifying the original template by doing this) using the design interface.
5. Name your custom design at the top center of the screen.
6. Click Save.
7. You can now select your custom design when you create a new credential group.

Copying a Template without Design Edit Permissions

1. Click Groups at the top of the screen and proceed to create a group.
2. Select the appropriate template design when prompted—you will not be able to modify the template, but the included attributes will be updated to reflect the name of the recipient, etc.
