About this template
Whether it is for one person or a whole group, the Chocolate Woodgrain Outstanding Achievement Award gives schools, employers and clubs a classic way to celebrate a goal that has been reached. Inknut Antiqua sets the title and Inter carries the details, with a wood-grain texture giving the page its character. It works just as well as a competition award.
Suggested wording
Copy one of these lines into the certificate, then replace the words in brackets.
With congratulations to [Name] for reaching [Milestone], a first for [Organisation].
Presented to [Name] in recognition of outstanding achievement in [Area] during [Year].
In recognition of [Name]’s achievement on [Date]. Proof that persistence pays off.
How to customise it
Click any line to change it: the recipient’s name, the wording, the date and the signatures. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. Colours are yours to change: try Walnut and Brass, or match your own brand colours. Choose A4, US Letter or A3, in landscape or portrait, and the layout rearranges itself to fit. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. Choose A4 in Europe and most of the world, or US Letter in North America, before you download. The background is dark, so a laser printer or a print shop will give the richest colour.
