How to add Certificates to LinkedIn:
- Go to your LinkedIn Profile.
Login to LinkedIn and Choose your 'me icon' at the top of the LinkedIn homepage then - Choose View Profile.
- Choose 'Add Profile Section'.
At the top-right of your profile. - Under 'Recommended', Choose 'Add licenses & certifications'.
What to add from a Shepherds Health & Safety Ltd Training Certificate:
- Certificate Name.
The name of the course you completed, such as 'Workstation Safety v3' displayed under your name on a Shepherds Health & Safety Ltd Training Certificate. - Issuing organization.
As you start typing Shepherds Health & Safety Ltd Training or just Shepherds Health & Safety Ltd we should appear with name and logo! - Credential ID.
This is the long "Certificate ID #" (letters and numbers) shown on the bottom of your certificate next to the signatory. (make sure to include this one!) - Valid Dates.
The 'Issue' date on LinkedIn is the date shown as 'completed on' on your Shepherds Health & Safety Ltd Training certificate, and if your certificate says 'Valid for 1 year' set the 'To' date as one year after the from/completed date. - Certification URL. (optional)
We don't recommend linking directly to a copy of your Certificate publicly on the Internet - instead (so that your profile viewers can see the content of your course certificate) use a link to our website which explains the course content and mention in your LinkedIn Bio that certificates may be available on request from you. This puts you in control of who has access to your certificates.
Completed a Health & Safety Course from our site?
If you completed a publicly available course (not a custom or private course for a company branded course), you can find the exact course link for the 'Certification URL' on our website and copy & paste the whole website address bar. This will link your LinkedIn Profile viewers directly to the information they're after.
Completed a Custom or Bespoke Company-Branded Course?
If you completed a private or customised course that is not publicly available you can just set the 'Certification URL' to our website homepage, so that your profile viewers can contact us if need be.
And as always, if you need any help with this, our friendly Support Team would be more than happy to help. :)
