Certificates and course materials

Course materials
All materials are provided in digital format only.
This means that a computer or tablet with access to Microsoft Teams is required in order to participate in both on-site and online courses at SIMAC Training.

Certificates
We only issue electronic certificates via IDSURE.IO. This means that once the course has been completed, you will only receive your certificate electronically. Before the course starts, you are kindly asked to create and verify your user account on IDSURE.IO so that we can issue the certificate. You must use the same email address as the one used for your course registration.

In order to use IDSURE.IO, valid photo ID is required so that your identity can be verified. If you do not have valid photo ID and therefore cannot be identified via IDSURE.IO, the solution cannot be used. In that case, a physical certificate must be issued at a cost of DKK 685 excl. VAT.

After receiving the electronic certificate, you may print it if you would like a hard copy.

If you would like a physical certificate issued by SIMAC Training, the cost is DKK 685 excl. VAT.

Lost course certificate
If your course certificate has been lost, we will be happy to send you a new one. The price is DKK 685.00 excl. VAT per certificate.
