A workshop certificate template gives you a clean record for people who spent a few hours learning by doing. Training providers, schools, libraries, community groups and companies hand one out at the end of a hands-on session, whether it ran for a morning, a day or a short series of evenings.
A good workshop certificate names the workshop, says what the person practised, and shows the hours or CPD credits, the date and the name of the facilitator who signed it. It is a proof of attendance and practice, not an exam result, so the wording should say so. The designs here come as certificates (A4 and US Letter) and as badges, so you can print one for the wall and also email the same award with a link that anyone can verify.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Name the workshop, say what people practised, and show the hours and the date. Add CPD credits only if an accrediting body has agreed them, and a signature with the signer's role.
Not quite. Attendance says the person was there. A completion certificate says they took part in the exercises and finished the session. Use the wording that is true for your workshop.
It helps. The person who ran the session knows who took part, so their signature and role make the certificate credible. Add the course director or organiser as a second signer if you like.
Yes, if people need to report them to an employer or a professional body. Say the hours you really ran and give credits only when an accrediting body has agreed them.
Send it on the day or the day after, while the session is fresh. A short email with the link lets people print it, share it or add it to a profile.
Yes. Write the true length on it. A short workshop earns a certificate or a badge as long as people did something and you say what it was.
