# Certification Management

Certifications in Admin Center are the trust signals shown on your Trust Center, such as SOC 2 or ISO badges.

## Access

* **Admin**
* **Content Manager**

## What You Can Manage

* Certification title and description
* Slug
* Issue date and expiry date
* A badge image
* A supporting certification file
* The template used to start the record

## Certification List

The main Certifications page shows:

* All certifications for the current tenant
* Status buckets derived from validity dates
* A quick path to create a new certification

The interface groups certifications into practical states such as valid, expiring soon, and expired.

## Creating A Certification

The create flow supports:

1. Choosing a template, or starting from a blank record
2. Entering the certification title and descriptive copy
3. Setting issue and expiry dates
4. Uploading the main certification document
5. Uploading or replacing the badge image

## Certification Slugs

A certification slug controls the Trust Center URL for that certification. Use lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only, for example `iso-27001` or `soc-2`.

Slugs are shared across documents and certifications. If you reuse a slug, Admin Center shows the existing item with a link so you can review the conflict before choosing a different slug.

Templates come from the shared `documents_templates` data used by the app.

## Important Product Behavior

* New certifications are created as **public** Trust Center items
* Badge upload and document upload are separate actions
* If you need account-gated or NDA-gated evidence, manage that as a normal document instead of describing certifications as per-account resources

## Editing And Cleanup

From the detail page you can update metadata, replace files, or delete the certification.
