What is a Digital Certificate?

Everything you need to know about your certificate:

After successfully completing your RCPI course, exam, training, or being awarded a Membership or Fellowship, you will receive an email with a secure link to your digital certificate. The certificate is issued by Accredible and serves as a means for you to validate and share your accomplishment. Its authenticity can be easily verified by anyone at any time.

With the secure digital certificate, your new skills and knowledge can be verified and shared with employers, colleagues, or family. This can be done in the following ways:

• Adding it to your ‘Certifications’ on LinkedIn: You can do this with one click on the credential.
• Sharing it on your relevant social media feeds: Update your network with your new achievement.
• Adding your certificate and qualification to your email signature: Communicate your new status with your colleagues.

Although we issue digital certificates, which our alumni find to be convenient as well as more environmentally friendly, you still have the option to order a printed copy.

Will I receive a printed copy of my Certificate?

When you attend your Conferring Ceremony, you will receive a printed copy of your certificate. In other circumstances, you will be given the option to order a printed version. We will communicate the details on how to do this shortly. Thank you for your patience. 

Can I download and print my Certificate?

RCPI does not allow certificate recipients to download and print their certificates to ensure the integrity and authenticity of the credentials are maintained. By controlling the distribution and format of certificates, RCPI can:

• Prevent Fraud: Digital certificates issued through Accredible are secure and can be easily verified for authenticity, reducing the risk of fraudulent copies.
• Ensure Consistency: Printed certificates provided by RCPI maintain a consistent and professional appearance, ensuring that all recipients receive a high-quality document.
• Enhance Security: Digital certificates are protected against unauthorized alterations, ensuring that the information remains accurate and trustworthy.
• Environmental Considerations: By promoting digital certificates, RCPI supports environmentally friendly practices by reducing paper usage.
• While digital certificates offer convenience and security, RCPI provides printed copies during Conferring Ceremonies or upon request to meet the needs of recipients. We will communicate the details on how to do this shortly. Thank you for your patience.
