Certificate FAQs
Can I get a replacement certificate for a trade school or bootcamp that shut down?
Closed trade schools and bootcamps often leave no records custodian at all, making official replacement impossible. State licensing boards may verify exam-based credentials, and a replica of your original certificate is frequently the only way to restore the physical document.
Are fake certificates for courses and training programs a thing?
Yes, novelty and replica certificates exist for professional courses, trade programs, and awards. They're legal for display, gag gifts, film props, and replacing lost originals; presenting one to claim a license or certification you don't hold crosses into fraud.
Can I get a certificate printed with a custom award or title?
Yes, custom certificate printing covers awards, honors, completions, and novelty titles with the same parchment, foil seals, and calligraphy-style fonts as institutional certificates. It's a fully legal print product used by employers, event hosts, and individuals.
How do I replace a lost trade school or vocational certificate?
Order a custom replacement certificate printed with your program name, your name, and your completion date. We design, proof, and ship replacement trade school and vocational certificates in as little as 24 hours, which is far faster than tracking down a school office that may no longer exist.
Can I order a replacement certificate for an online course or training program?
Yes. We print replacement certificates for online courses, certifications, and training programs of all kinds. Send us the program name and your completion details and we recreate a clean, professional certificate you can frame or keep on file.
How much does a replacement certificate cost?
Most replacement certificates cost between $50 and $150 depending on size, seal options, and shipping speed. Rush printing and overnight delivery are available if you need the certificate in hand fast.
Can I get a replacement certificate with a raised seal or embossed logo?
Yes. Raised foil seals and embossed finishes are available on replacement certificates, and they make the document look and feel like the original. Most customers add a gold embossed seal for framing.
What information do I need to order a replacement certificate?
Just the school or program name, your name as it should appear, the completion date, and any title or credential wording you want printed. If you have a photo of the original, upload it and we will match the layout.
