About this template
Here is a contemporary way to celebrate a goal that has been reached: the Raspberry Wave Database Administration Certificate, a template that suits tech teams, coding schools and hackathon organisers. It is shown here in raspberry, with flowing waves, DM Mono headings and Public Sans for the smaller text.
Suggested wording
Copy one of these lines into the certificate, then replace the words in brackets.
For [Name], whose hard work turned an ambitious goal into a result we can all be proud of.
Presented with pride to [Name] for Database Administration, from everyone at [Organisation].
Presented to [Name] in recognition of outstanding achievement in [Area] during [Year].
How to customise it
Click any line to change it: the recipient’s name, the wording, the date, record ID, hours and engines and the signatures. Need portrait instead of landscape, or US Letter instead of A4? Change it in one click. Colours are yours to change: try Slate & Amber, or match your own brand colours. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
A smooth, bright white card stock (about 65–80 lb cover) gives the cleanest finish. Download the PDF at the paper size you will print on (A4 or US Letter) and set the printer to “Actual size” or 100%. Sign it in blue or black ink once it is printed for a personal touch.
