Factorial allows you to automatically generate and send course completion certificates using training workflows—available across all markets.
This feature helps HR and training teams streamline training administration, reduce manual work, and ensure participants receive their signed certificates once a course is completed.
While this example focuses on certificates, training workflows can be used to automate the creation and delivery of any document triggered by a course—like attendance sheets, feedback forms, or even customized emails with dynamic fields.
How it works
Create a Training
- Go to the Trainings section in the sidebar
- Click on + New course
- Fill in the required information

Factorial provides workflow templates for training processes. You can use or customize them to fit your needs. Examples:

- Under Training workflows, select a template or create your own
- Add steps like:

Certificates and documents are generated automatically
Once a training is completed:
- Factorial will generate a PDF certificate or documents for each participant.
- The document includes:
- Participant name
- Course name
- Signatures from both the participant and their manager
The system will:
- Send a task to each participant to sign their certificate
- Notify their manager to sign as well
Once both signatures are collected, the certificate is marked as completed and saved automatically.
Where can participants and training managers find the certificates?
Participants can access their signed certificates in:
- My Documents → under the folder Training Certificates

Training managers and admins can find participants’ certificates in:
- Training → Courses → open the course → go to the Participants table
- From there, they can download each participant’s certificate.
