Profiles Section

Map certificates to learners based on a specified field in the learner's profile.  



For example, certificates could be mapped based on a learner's selection of a "Profession" field.  Physicians would get the physician certificate and Nurses would get the nursing certificate.



Selection of the profile field used for mapping is done when the site is initially configured. Certificate mappings then become possible at the profile field level.



Manual Section

This section is used when a single certificate should be awarded to all learners completing the course.



Awarded Course Credit Section

Using this mapping will award a certificate based on the credit type the learner is awarded after completing a course.
