About this template
Made with schools, employers and clubs in mind, this Special Achievement Award helps you celebrate a goal that has been reached without starting from a blank page. The colour scheme you see, Crimson and Gold, is one of three built into the design, with a medal at the heart of the layout. You will also find it under Awards & Competitions on CerShare.

How to customise it
Click any line to change it: the recipient’s name, the wording, the date and the signatures. Colours are yours to change: try Royal Blue and Gold, or match your own brand colours. Need portrait instead of landscape, or US Letter instead of A4? Change it in one click. Fonts can be swapped too; the defaults are Inter Tight and DM Sans. There is an Arabic edition too, laid out right to left with Noto Kufi Arabic.
Printing tips
A smooth, bright white card stock (about 65–80 lb cover) gives the cleanest finish. In the print dialog choose “Actual size” rather than “Fit”, so the border isn’t cropped. It fits a standard certificate frame or a document folder.
