How to Use E-Learning for Successful Employee Training and Education? Newcomer Training (Part 1) Hello! I'm Motoki from Marketing. With April approaching soon, the fiscal year is about to change, and I am sure that many companies are conducting their internal training for new employees right now. This time, I would like to talk about how to succeed in employee education and training through e-learning. I would like to focus on [training for new employees]. Click here for the Table of Contents 1. you want to make your employee education/training effective, right? 2. this time, we would like to focus on [new employee training]. 3. job offers are looking for a connection with the company. 4. summary We want to make employee training and education effective. Dear trainers and educators! When conducting employee education and corporate training, of course you want to make sure it is effective. If you have never used e-learning for training, or if you have used e-learning but are not sure whether it is effective or not, we would like to recommend a way to use e-learning for training. If you have never implemented e-learning in your training program, or if you have implemented e-learning but are not sure whether it is effective or not, we would like to recommend the following methods to you. This time, we will focus on "training for new employees. This time, we will focus on "training for new employees". In particular, we will be discussing the "internal training" for new employees before they join the company. Does your company provide any training for new employees, whether new graduates or mid-career hires? E-learning is a very suitable training tool for internal training. What are the reasons? Let's take a look! The offeror is looking for a connection with the company. This is why e-learning is a very good training tool for job offer training. To get some background, let's take a quick look at this data. This graph shows the frequency of contact with the company to which the students wish to make an unofficial job offer. When "about once a month" (47.7%) and "about once every two months" (39.9%) are combined, more than 80% of the students wish to have contact with the company once every one to two months. In other words, it is clear that they want a regular connection with the company. This result suggests that the job offer recipients are very anxious until they join the company, wondering if they will be able to work properly at the company, if they will fit in well, and if they will be able to learn the job well. In fact, there is a way to resolve this anxiety. It is simply "information" and "communication"! Job applicants want "information". Job applicants want to know what they will be doing after joining a company, what knowledge they will need to do their job, etc. They want "information". They want "communication. By communicating with them, you can help them feel more secure and less anxious about joining your company. (Excessive communication and some means of communication can be counterproductive.) So how do you provide this "information" and "communication"? By phone? Group training? No, e-learning! Successful pre-employment internal training using eLearning. We recommend that you use e-Learning to provide "information" and "communication" for the follow-up of job offers. Use e-Learning for your pre-employment internal training. For new graduates, use e-learning to provide training on manners and basic knowledge as a member of society and office automation training such as typing, etc. For mid-career hires, use e-learning to provide training to acquire basic knowledge about the industry and knowledge at a practical level. Use e-learning to communicate. By utilizing one of the LMS functions, such as the notification function or the survey function, you can communicate naturally and effectively. The LMS also makes it possible to provide internal information (such as self-introduction sheets by senior employees) that cannot be sent out through a website. There are many other advantages. Compared to group training, e-learning does not require everyone to meet in person. This is especially effective when there are offices throughout Japan. (Advantages for the company) With group training, you are bound to a specific date and time for a long period of time, but with e-learning, you can train at any time you want. (Advantage on the part of the employees) E-learning allows for smooth implementation of training after the employee joins the company. Conclusion We hope you now understand the advantages of using e-learning to provide "information" and "communication" for follow-up of job offers. By using e-learning, you can provide a natural opportunity to connect the company with job offer recipients, thereby relieving their anxiety prior to joining the company. It also allows them to get off to a confident start after they join the company. The same can be said for both new graduates and mid-career hires. Please use e-learning to make your employee education and training a success! In the next issue, we will show you how to actually use the e-learning system learninBOX for "information" and "communication. We look forward to seeing you next time!

I am Nishimura, the creator of QuizGenerator, and the creator of QuizGenerator. Actually, I did not participate in the initial development of learningBOX, but started full-fledged participation around the release of version 2.0. I have just received a pull request regarding the handling of character encoding, and I thought I should talk a little more about character encoding, so I put it together in an article. In this article, I will introduce "How to unify the character encoding of text files with utf-8 in PHP". We hope you enjoy this article as well. Table of Contents 1. shift-JIS is unavoidable 2. how to avoid garbled characters 3. how to determine character encoding 4. summary Shift-JIS is unavoidable. Systems like learningBOX and QuizGenerator sometimes receive text files such as CSV. In modern Web systems, the character encoding of text files should be utf-8, and we do not want to accept any other character encoding, but in reality, Shift_JIS files are often uploaded on rare occasions and reported as a problem. Therefore, when QuizGenerator receives a Shift_JIS file, it converts it to utf-8 and continues processing. What is Shift-JIS? Shift-JIS is one of the character codes that contain various characters including Japanese, standardized as JIS standard. It is used as the standard character code for Japanese in many personal computers. it is an improvement of the JIS code defined in the JIS standard. while the JIS code uses 7 bits to represent a character, the Shift-JIS code uses 2 bytes (16 bits) to represent all characters. mb_convert_encoding is not reliable. PHP has a function called mb_convert_encoding to perform character encoding conversion. At first glance, this function seems to be able to determine the character encoding and convert to utf-8, but in fact, this function is not reliable. mb_convert_encoding("aaa", "utf-8", "utf-8, sjis-win") will convert "aaa" to utf-8 if it is utf-8 and to Shift_JIS If it is Shift_JIS, it should convert it to utf-8 (at least that's what I've read in the official documentation), but in fact, it does something ridiculous. It forcefully interprets a string passed in as utf-8 as Shift_JIS, breaks it, and converts it to utf-8, returning a value that is incomprehensible. How to avoid character corruption ▼ "mb_convert_encoding works properly if you specify the character encoding of the conversion source. mb_convert_encoding works properly as long as you specify the character encoding of the conversion source. In other words, the strategy of converting from Shift_JIS to utf-8 only if it is Shift_JIS, and doing nothing if it is utf-8, basically works. mb_convert_encoding("aaaa", "utf-8", "sjis-win") The above code works fine if "aaaa" is Shift_JIS. If it is originally utf-8, it is OK as is. How do we determine the character encoding? There is a function called mb_detect_encoding, but to begin with, if this works correctly, it can be solved simply by using mb_convert_encoding. If the standard functions don't work, you're on your own. It is not that difficult to determine whether or not the utf-8 specification is met, so just do it. What if it is not utf-8? If it's not utf-8, we'll treat it as Shift_JIS at ・・・・. We can't support people who submit euc-jp or utf-16 files, at least not if they know about encoding. At least, people who do that should know about encoding, so please self-serve. In the first place, they are specified to use utf-8. Another trap I have used the term Shift_JIS many times in this article, but what is currently referred to as Shift_JIS is often Windows-31J (MS932), which is an extension of Shift_JIS. However, if you specify Shift_JIS in PHP, characters other than those specified in the original Shift_JIS specification will be corrupted. Unless you have a special reason, use Windows-31J or sjis-win instead of Shift_JIS. The official documentation says to use Windows-31J, but only sjis-win is listed, which is a strange state of affairs, but at least with PHP 7.3.13, either specification worked fine. Will a unified future ever come? About 20 years ago. When I first started web programming, UTF-8 was not the standard and garbled characters were a common occurrence. In the Web world, it seems safe to say that the unification to utf-8 has been completed. Smartphones were created based on the assumption of utf-8, since they were born in a world after utf-8 became widely used. （On the other hand, files exchanged on Windows are often in Shift_JIS. Conclusion In this article, we introduced "How to unify the character encoding of text files with utf-8 in PHP. As a company from Japan, we would like to keep the usability for Japanese people in mind, so we will continue to develop without forgetting about Shift_JIS for a while longer. (We really want to forget about IE11...)

Why not use e-learning as an alternative to group training for new employees? Hello. My name is Motoki. As soon as possible, I would like to express my deepest sympathies to all those who have suffered and are spending anxious days due to the infectious disease related to the new type of coronavirus. As you know, there have been daily news reports about the new coronavirus. This has also caused school closings and the cancellation of various events. Many companies have introduced or are considering telework and staggered working hours as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus, and many business meetings and discussions are being handled via video conferencing. These factors have also had an impact on our company, and recently we have been receiving an increasing number of inquiries from companies considering the introduction of e-learning as a method of providing training. Therefore, we would like to discuss the introduction of e-learning as an alternative to new employee training. If you are wondering how you should implement new employee training, we hope this will be helpful. Click here for the table of contents Some companies are reviewing their new employee training programs 2. how to conduct new employee training without gathering together 3. more and more companies are actually considering e-learning 4. our e-learning system is "inexpensive" and "easy to use 5. summary Some companies are rethinking their new employee training programs Due to the impact of the coronavirus outbreak, many companies have begun to rethink their plans for new employee training and initiation ceremonies scheduled for March and April. The survey results have actually emerged, with "As of late February, 17.11 TP2T of respondents were considering changing their plans from the original plan, an increase of 7.7 points from the February 13 survey." The results are out as follows. *Source: Survey on the Impact of the New Coronavirus on New Employee Induction Training (Second Report) from If new employee training cannot be conducted, it will be impossible to provide appropriate education and support to new employees who are already feeling anxious. In addition, if companies are unable to provide training, they will not be able to nurture the human resources that will become the company's workforce, resulting in a significant loss of business. In order to implement new employee training without gathering In response to this situation, "e-learning" is a method that allows each new employee to realize an environment similar to the content and quality of group training while at home or in a remote location. With e-learning, new employee training can be conducted without gathering together. Let us reiterate the advantages of e-Learning. Advantages of e-Learning E-learning can be conducted at any time and any place. Progress and results can be checked immediately. All materials that can be made available on the web (PDFs, videos, etc.) can be distributed online as educational materials. ...etc... Of course, there are some training courses that are difficult to implement online, such as practical skills training, but I think there are many things that can be converted to e-learning as teaching materials. Thus, e-learning is a great alternative to new employee training, as long as you have an Internet connection and a device such as a smartphone, you can start learning immediately. More and more companies are actually considering e-learning. In fact, according to the results of a survey of companies that are considering taking a different approach to new employee training than originally planned, the second most popular response was "considering methods other than group training (remote, e-learning, etc.)," indicating that more companies are considering e-learning as a method for new employee training. Source: "Survey on the Impact of the New Coronavirus on New Employee Induction Training (Second Report)" (Japanese only) Our e-learning system is "inexpensive" and "easy to use Our e-learning system learningBOX is "cheap" and "easy to use".

We hope that you will consider using e-learning as part of the introduction of telework and remote working.

Online learning tools available free of charge during the school holidays Hello! My name is Motoki🍠, and I am in charge of marketing. Due to the spread of the coronavirus, educational institutions around the country continue to close their schools (as of this writing: April 13, 2020). (At the time of writing: April 13, 2020) And it is not limited to educational institutions; our lives as a whole have been greatly affected. In this issue, we would like to introduce online learning tools to support schools during the school closure and the use of textbooks for remote learning that was recently announced in the press. Click here for Table of Contents 1. textbooks can now be used in distance learning and online learning 2. online learning tools for input and output Textbooks are now available for distance learning and online learning With many elementary and junior high schools, universities, and other schools closed due to the government's declaration of a state of emergency, the government has decided to enforce the revised Copyright Act on April 28, 2020, which allows textbooks and other copyrighted works to be used without permission in remote classes in order to create an environment that facilitates remote classes and prevents learning delays. The revised Copyright Act, which will come into effect on April 28, will allow textbooks to be used in remote classes. This will allow textbooks to be used in remote classes, making it possible to provide online learning that allows students to study at home in accordance with the textbooks and study guidelines. *What is the revised Copyright Act? The revised Copyright Act is a law passed in May 2018. It was scheduled to take effect within three years, but due to ongoing discussions among the parties concerned over the amount of compensation and other issues, there was no time frame for the start of the system. This time, it was decided to introduce a special measure not to collect compensation from schools only in FY 2008 as a measure against the new type of Corona. (Source: Japan Association for Compensation Management for Public Transmissions for Teaching Purposes) Under the new system, textbooks and other copyrighted materials can be used freely and without charge (with some restrictions) in remote classes and online learning via the Internet. For example, teachers will be able to send textbooks for preparation and review to children via e-mail or share them on an external server. Online learning tools for input and output Now that these legal changes have made it possible to provide home study based on textbooks, we hope that you will take this opportunity to consider implementing online learning. We have been receiving an increasing number of inquiries from educational institutions, and since March, we have been developing a project called "learningBOX Starter 1000 Plans Free of Charge" to support educational institutions and children affected by the school closure measures. The plan is to provide free starter plans of learningBOX, a learning management system, to schools, cram schools, and other educational institutions until the end of May. (The offer was originally scheduled for the end of April, but has been extended to the end of May due to the extension of school holidays.) The number of users for the starter plan is Starter 1000, which can be used by up to 1,000 people, including the administrator. What is learningBOX? learningBOX is a Learning Management System (LMS). A learning management system is like a "box" for online and e-learning learning. Many teaching materials and learning tools that can be created and registered. With learningBOX, you can easily convert learning materials to the Web and distribute them as online learning tools.

IT beginners! Introducing training for newcomers using e-learning! It has been a month since I joined Tatsuno Information System. Hello, I am Takahashi, a sales representative who joined the company in August 2020 🔰. As a newcomer from a different industry, there are many things I don't understand about IT and computer knowledge, and I am struggling with difficult IT terminology every day. In this article, I would like to introduce our e-learning system (learningBOX) newcomer training, which was a smooth learning experience even for an IT novice like me. During the training, I felt "learningBOX is amazing! I would like to share with you my frank impressions of the system, such as the points that I felt during the training and the ease of use.

Duplication of items during user registration When registering a user, if there is a duplicate of an item used in another owner-manager's environment, the message "This 00 is already in use. is displayed. Duplicate items include "Login ID," "Display Name," and "E-mail Address. The following is an explanation of duplicate conditions and how to deal with duplicates. Table of Contents 1. reasons for duplicate user registration 2. duplicate conditions and solutions Reasons for duplicate user registration If you are using a shared server, duplicate entries may occur. The reason for this is the structure of the shared server. Shared Server Structure A shared server is a type of rental server where one server is shared by multiple owner-managers. It is like renting a room in a condominium, but with multiple users sharing a single server, similar to a "shared house" service. Therefore, there is a possibility of duplicate entries when registering users. Duplicate conditions and how to deal with them Login ID Login IDs must be unique. Login IDs used in other owner-manager environments cannot be registered. The following letters and symbols can be used, so please create a mixture of numbers and special characters to prevent duplication.

Let's use the permission settings of learningBOX! Part 2: School Use Hello! This is ⛄ Shinokura from the Quality Control Department. The rainy season has started, and the days are getting dreary and rainy. During the rainy season, it is easy to get sick due to the difference in weather and temperature, so please be careful. Now, in this article, continuing from the previous article, I would like to introduce how to use the authorization settings, assuming an example of use in a school. In the previous article, we introduced how to use Authorization Settings to give groups and members only the necessary privileges, rather than uniformly giving them the same privileges. In this article, we would like to explain how to make detailed settings for learning management, grade management, and assignment of teaching materials for each teacher's subject and class.

Grades of "Student>1Year" for members belonging to the group "Student>1Year>1" (-> because he is the homeroom teacher of the class 1Year1) Grades of "Students > 1 year > Japanese" for members belonging to the group "Students > 1 year" (→ because they are in charge of Japanese) Grades of the members of the group "Students > 2 years" in "Students > 2 years > Japanese" (→ because they are in charge of Japanese) The results of "Student > 3 years > Japanese" of the members of the group "Student > 3 years > Japanese" (→ for being in charge of Japanese) Conclusion In this paper, we have discussed how to set the authority of teachers for each subject, assuming a school setting. Using these methods, it is possible to flexibly combine them, such as sometimes being in charge of all grades and sometimes only one class, without uniformly giving the same authority. Many schools may be introducing or considering e-learning systems as online teaching advances in the wake of the coronavirus. learningBOX is a learning management system that even first-time users can intuitively touch and learn its functions without difficulty in operation and settings. Each teacher working in a school has many roles. I think they manage various roles and organizations, such as being in charge of a grade, a class, or a subject they teach. Please try to set up the authorization taking into consideration the authorization that each individual teacher should have, without giving unnecessary authorization.

How to Use IP Restrictions to Enhance Online Learning Security This is Kidaoka, Marketing Manager. This paper introduces basic knowledge about IP addresses - how to set IP restrictions. eLearning-based online learning, online classes, and in-house education are very convenient as cloud services that can be used from anywhere. However, the ability to access from anywhere also increases the risk of unauthorized access and the risk of personal information leakage. One solution to this problem is IP restrictions, which prevent users from logging into their accounts unless they use a specified IP address. Our learningBOX is an e-learning system that can be configured with IP restrictions to ensure security.

An IP address is simply a "number" assigned to a computer or communication device connected to the Internet. When using the Internet to browse websites or send and receive e-mail, it is necessary to identify the other party with whom you are communicating. The IP address plays a role in this process. Every terminal connected to the network has an IP address, which is assigned to identify devices on the network such as computers, smartphones, and tablets, and serves as an address on the Internet. Basic Knowledge of IP Addresses Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia IP addresses are represented using decimal numbers. The IP address is represented by a decimal number, and is called a "domain" when it is replaced by letters to make it easier for humans to understand. The Internet has a vast number of users coming and going. Who is viewing or accessing a website and where? The global IP address indicates the unique IP address of the user. This global IP address is unique and cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world. This is the same mechanism that prevents duplicate phone numbers and addresses! What is a decimal number? A decimal number is a way of writing numbers (notation) in which the base number is 10. It expresses numbers using all numbers from "0" to "9". ➡ 【0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 】 Connection Restriction by IP Address LearningBOX can be restricted so that only certain IP addresses can view it. It is important to note, however, that "IP restriction" here refers to settings for global IP addresses. Keep in mind that it is the global IP address that is relevant to IP restrictions! Setting IP restrictions on learningBOX Starting from learningBOX Ver. 2.11, it is possible to set IP restrictions for the access source. How to set IP restrictions Please log in to learningBOX and go to Member Management > IP Restrictions in the side menu. Click IP Restrictions, and the screen will switch to "Login IP Restrictions". Restrict IP This function can be configured for each group. Click "Add IP Restrictions" to display a pop-up configuration window, where you can select a group and enter its IP address, then click the "Add" button to add it. Select the members of the group, enter the IP addresses that can log in, and click the Add button. IP restrictions are now set. Conclusion In this article, we have briefly introduced the basics of IP addresses and how to set up IP restrictions to prevent unauthorized access and information leaks related to the protection of members' personal information. Since it is very easy to set up IP restrictions on learningBOX, please refer to this article and try using IP restrictions according to your own purposes.

Motivate your students to learn! Learn how to create e-learning materials! My name is Kidaoka, and I am in charge of marketing. In this article, we will discuss the important points to consider when starting an e-learning program, including how to choose an e-learning system, tips for creating original content, and techniques for motivating students to learn! E-learning is not just a matter of implementing e-learning, but it is also a matter of how to make your e-learning system work for you. The problems of e-learning providers vary from company to company, such as "e-learning has not taken root in the company," "the operation and system are complicated and difficult to manage," and "the learning does not last long. On the other hand, there are many cases where e-learning has been highly effective. The first step to a successful e-learning implementation is to choose the right e-learning system. The most appropriate form of e-learning differs from company to company, school to school, and service to service. In recent years, more and more companies are creating their own original e-learning materials in-house instead of using commercially available content, and the key is to create content that keeps learners engaged and interested. Click here for the table of contents 1. how to choose the best e-Learning/LMS 2. the secret to creating content that keeps learners engaged 3. the latest techniques for motivating learners 4. learningBOX content features 5. summary How to choose the best e-learning and LMS When selecting an e-Learning system, it is important for the person in charge to carefully assess the "scale, form, and usage" of the e-Learning system that is appropriate for his/her company or school. What is the purpose of implementing e-Learning?　⇒ "What kind of e-learning is appropriate for that purpose? and choose an e-learning system keeping in mind the purpose for which your company is adopting the system. Three important points when choosing an e-Learning/LMS When selecting an e-learning system, we refer to e-learning functions, effectiveness of implementation, case studies of actual implementation, support content, and cost (price). In addition, why don't you also refer to the other three points we are about to introduce? Choose a service from a long-term perspective When selecting an e-Learning/LMS service, proceed in light of your company's current situation and challenges. While selecting a system that fits your current situation, there is no guarantee that your needs will not change in the future. A mid- to long-term perspective is also very important. Who is going to use e-learning? In order to utilize e-learning and LMS services in an optimal manner to address your company's issues, you need to develop an education plan that is optimized to meet the objectives of who (which department) will be in charge, on what themes, and for whom e-learning will be utilized. Consider ease of use for employees taking the course. When implementing an e-learning/LMS service, HR personnel should be careful not to think about the functions and usability from the perspective of the person in charge of the course, rather than from the perspective of the employees who will be taking the course. It is necessary to examine usability from the user's perspective, taking into consideration the need to learn how to operate and set up the system from the perspective of the employees who will be taking the course and, depending on the function, the person in charge of onsite training. What is LMS? An LMS (Learning Management System) is a system that creates, registers, and distributes learning materials necessary for implementing e-learning, and manages learners' learning progress and grades. Application Examples In the case of qualification test preparation In the case of learning to acquire qualifications, repetitive learning is an important point. Using a lecture video learned on a PC at home and then watching it again on a smartphone while commuting to work or school, or watching the rest of the lecture, enhances learning continuity. We recommend an e-learning system that supports multiple devices and responsive design for smooth learning across multiple devices. For Training at Medical Institutions E-learning at medical institutions requires not only a learning environment, but also centralized management of the learning history and qualification acquisition status of a large number of medical staff. In addition, the entire organization must share information on a wide range of knowledge related to patient care and life, such as disease names, medical record information, and knowledge of drugs used in treatment. In these cases, an e-learning system with strong learning history management and easy interactive communication within the system is required. Corporate Training The content and scale of training varies from company to company, such as personnel transfers and assessments, so an e-learning system with a certain degree of flexibility and customization is necessary. In some cases, the e-learning system must be linked to the personnel database. If the e-learning system that you have taken the trouble to introduce is rejected because it is "somehow difficult to use," "hard to understand," or "complicated and difficult to operate," it will not be suitable for long-term operation and company growth. It may become a temporary, ad hoc learning experience. In all cases, the one thing that must be kept in mind is the ease of use of the e-learning system. It is important that the system is intuitive and easy to understand, not only for the learner but also for the administrator! The Secret to Creating Content that Keeps Learners Engaged There are many commercially available learning contents that are essential for e-learning. However, each company or school has its own learning content and training style. Therefore, there are cases where it is inevitable to create original learning materials. When creating original materials in-house, the ability to create content that keeps learners engaged is an important point in operating the e-learning system. Many people who are in charge of e-learning encounter this obstacle after implementing a system. Here are some tips for creating engaging content from the learner's point of view. Create easy-to-understand titles Choose words with a clear and attractive title in mind for each content. This is an important point to encourage learners' desire to learn. Avoid difficult words and try to use titles that make the content easy to understand at a glance. With learningBOX, titles can be recognized at a glance From the content management screen, you can freely set course titles, thumbnail images, title names, and explanatory text. Learners can grasp the contents of the course material at a glance, allowing them to proceed smoothly to the training session. Add interactive devices! Interactive refers to "interactive information dissemination" and "a form of communication that allows information exchange rather than one-way communication. Make conscious efforts to create learning materials that attract learners' interest by utilizing audio, video, and animation in your learning materials. You will be amazed at how much more crisp and clear the learning materials can be than if there were none. learningBOX can handle a wide variety of content learningBOX has a wide variety of content functions. You can combine the functions and features of each content to transform a boring or boring training course into a highly original teaching material. ➡How to Use Content Management Be aware of origins and endings Define the objectives and goals of the course content, and design a course that will not get lost during the training. Creating materials with this in mind will turn on the learner's "learning switch"! Make the introductory part easy and make it progressively more difficult to create a flow that allows learners to learn without strain. Don't forget to include a confirmation test or summary at the end to consolidate knowledge! Using the learningBOX... Constraints can be set. This function allows you to set up prerequisites, such as the next problem to be solved after a specific problem is passed, from two conditions. ▼With the constraint bar in place, learners will not be able to proceed unless they have completed and passed the content. The Latest Methods to Increase Learning Motivation The advantage of e-learning is that learners can learn anytime, anywhere, at their own time and pace. However, on the other hand, it is said to be difficult to keep learners motivated. Recently, various methods have emerged to provide an optimized learning environment for each individual learner and to motivate learners, and these methods are attracting attention. Here, we will introduce gamification, which is used in the field of education. Gamification Gamification is a method of increasing user motivation and loyalty by incorporating game design techniques and game-like elements. By incorporating gamification into e-Learning, it is possible to create a system that motivates learners and makes it fun to work through to the end. Granting original certificates Using the learningBOX function, you can create and grant certificates that range from stylish to cute designs to give learners a special feeling. Grant certificates to members who have completed tests and training! The design and layout arrangement of the certificates can be easily configured to your liking.
