## Design a Certificate of Completion

In order to send a Certificate of Completion, first design your certificate to fit your brand and business.

Design your Certificate of Completion using image editing tools like [Canva](https://www.canva.com/templates/search/completion-certificates/) to create branded certificates for your customers.

For a general Certificate that applies to all customers completing your Course, design a general Certificate. If you wish to create and send personalized Certificates, refer to [create a Certificate with Google Slides](../../api-integrations/zapier/how-to-create-a-certificate-with-google-slides) or [send Certificates of Completion with Accredible](../../api-integrations/zapier/how-to-send-certificates-of-completion-with-accredible).

Then, download your designed Certificate of Completion to your local hard drive.

## Create an Automation in the final Course Lesson

After designing your certificate, set up your Automation in Kajabi to send the certificate as an email attachment to customers who complete your Course.

6. Select **Send an email**.
7. Select **To the person**.
8. Customize your email and click the paper clip icon to add an attachment.
9. Use the File Uploader to upload your Certificate of Completion.
10. Click **Ok** and **Save** to keep your changes.

With your Automation set up, customers who complete your last Lesson receive an email containing their Certificate of Completion.

The next step depends on your Kajabi Plan and your vision for your Certificate.
