About this template
The Gold Classic Research Ethics Training Certificate is a classic Research Ethics Training Certificate template that research institutes, labs and science competitions use to record training that has been completed. The gold palette and Spectral lettering keep it classic and easy to read. Change a few words and it doubles as a course completion certificate.

How to customise it
You can rewrite the whole certificate; the modules and valid until fields are already in place, and you can delete the ones you don’t need. Colours are yours to change: try Quiet Balance, or match your own brand colours. Text sizes adjust to fit, and you can choose another font for any line. It works in landscape or portrait, on A4 or US Letter, without you having to move anything. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
Heavy matte or parchment paper gives it the weight of an official document. Download the PDF at the paper size you will print on (A4 or US Letter) and set the printer to “Actual size” or 100%. It fits a standard certificate frame or a document folder.
