How do students add new industry certifications?

Method 1: You're actively enrolled in the program your certification relates to.

1. Navigate to Industry Certification Progress

2. Find the industry certification you've completed and click on upload or the date input box

This will open up a pop up window asking for more information about this industry certification.

3. Fill out the Certification Date

This should be populated with the date you achieved the certification.

4. Upload the industry certification as a PDF file

5. After you've added all of the information about the industry certification, click save

6. Check the status of the industry certification

Depending on how your school is set up, your industry certification may or may not be approved. If there is a striped background, that means that your upload is awaiting approval. You can click on the notes icon to see the status of your industry certification and correspond with the user who will be approving it.

7. Add additional notes if you'd like

If you have any additional comments for the approver, you can add them here. You'll see the most recent message in the correspondence is a bubble showing a way to view the file you've uploaded and see when the certification was achieved. The approver will use this information to verify your submission.

Method 2: You are not actively enrolled in the program your certification relates to.
