Frequently Asked Questions

How does the certification credential get issued to a candidate?
As soon as a candidate submits, FormLM grades the attempt out of 100. A score of 90 or above automatically appends a golden certificate page — bearing the candidate’s name, final score, issue date, and your issuing organization — as the last page of their PDF report. No manual review, no design work, no external platform.
What happens if a candidate doesn’t clear the 90-point line?
The credential is withheld — but the report instead surfaces the exact competency gaps flagged during grading, framed as a professional development guide. Candidates retake with a targeted study plan rather than a generic failure notice.
Can the certificate go into a professional portfolio or résumé?
Yes. The certificate is a full A4 page inside the downloaded PDF — the candidate can print it, attach it to a LinkedIn profile, include it in a tender pack, or file it in their professional development record. It carries name, score, issue date, and issuing body for verifiability.
Is this professional certification exam template free?
Yes. Click "Use This Template" to copy the full certification exam — questions, scoring logic, certificate page, and candidate report — into your FormLM workspace at no cost. No credit card required.
Can I put my own organization on the certificate?
Yes. The issuing body is a template field — after copying, set your organization’s name once and every certificate issued by that exam carries it, alongside the candidate’s name, score, and issue date.
