How Do I Create a Transcript of My Certifications?
You can create a transcript to verify your CompTIA certification(s) by following the steps below.
Tip: For a simpler option, you can download a PDF copy of your certification to provide verification of your certification status.
Steps to Create a Transcript
- Log in to your CompTIA account.
- Click the Manage Certifications header.
- Click the Go to My Certifications button to access your certification account.
- Click the Transcript tab at the top of the page.
- Click Create New Transcript on the left side of your screen.
- Customize your transcript by selecting the following options:
- DISABLED: Prevents recipients from viewing the transcript before the expiration date. This will disable all transcripts sent under this specific transcript ID.
- DISPLAY CERTS: Displays only the certification dates and certifications held (if checked).
- CAN BE VIEWED UNTIL: Sets the last date the transcript can be viewed by the recipient. Use the format MM-DD-YYYY. Be sure to enter the date correctly, or the transcript may not work.
- PRIVATE NOTES: Add notes for your reference only. These notes are visible only to you on the main transcript screen.
- CERTIFICATIONS TO DISPLAY: If you hold multiple certifications, check the box next to the certifications you want to include in the transcript.
- Click Submit to create the transcript and generate a transcript ID#.
- Under the Share column, click the envelope icon to open the address box.
- Enter the recipient's email address and click Send.
Note: To send the transcript to multiple recipients, repeat the process for each email address. Each recipient must be entered individually. If you use the "DISABLED" feature, all recipients with the transcript ID# will lose access.
Helpful Tip
Before sending your transcript to others, email it to yourself first. This allows you to review how it looks and make any necessary edits.
