# SCORM Course: Customization

SmarterU enables you to customize various elements of your SCORM course including the course's image that's used in the catalog and various dashboards, and the completion certificate.

![Customization](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/scorm-course-customization-image-anxcgaff.png)

## Course Image

This course image displays in the [Courses Dashboard](/v1/docs/courses-dashboard), [ILT Attendance Dashboard](/v1/docs/ilt-attendance-dashboard), and the [learner interface's tile view](/v1/docs/learner-interface-course-tile-view) and [list view](/v1/docs/learner-interface-course-list-view).

Refer to [SmarterU File Uploads](https://support.smarteru.com/docs/smarteru-file-uploads-1#course-image) for file specifications. 

To upload a course image:

1. [Add](/v1/docs/adding-a-scorm-course) or [edit a SCORM course](/v1/docs/editing-a-scorm-course).
2. From the Course Information workscreen, expand the Customization accordion.
3. Click **Upload Image**. If you are replacing an existing file, click **Replace Image**.
4. Navigate to the location of the image.
5. Select the image.
6. Click **Open**.
7. Click **Save**.

If you have already uploaded an image, hover over the View Image link to preview the image.

To delete the image, click the X beside the View Image link.

## Completion Certificate

The **Course Certificate** setting determines the type of completion certificate that will be used for the course.

![Certificate Options](https://cdn.document360.io/7efaadab-fef6-4186-806a-2ca14c9ce9ea/Images/Documentation/scorm-course-customization-image-8jwc8q5q.png)

Select one of the following:

- None - There is no course completion certificate.
- Default - SmarterU's default course certificate is generated. If a [certificate has been uploaded for the account](/v1/docs/account-customization#course-completion-certificate), that will be the default certificate used. If no account-level certificate exists, the SmarterU default certificate will be used.

- Custom - You may upload a PDF that will be used to generate the course completion certificate. The PDF should be 8.5 x 11 inches and may contain text, graphics, and fields for the learner's name, course name, course provider name, and completion date. Upon completion of the course, SmarterU will merge the information into the PDF to generate a completion certificate for the learner. Refer to [Creating a Custom Certificate](/v1/docs/creating-a-custom-certificate) for more information.

Refer to [SmarterU File Uploads](https://support.smarteru.com/docs/smarteru-file-uploads-1#completion-certificate) for file specifications.  

To upload a completion certificate:

1. [Add](/v1/docs/adding-a-scorm-course) or [edit a SCORM course](/v1/docs/editing-a-scorm-course).
2. Click **Upload Certificate**. If you are replacing an existing file, click **Replace Certificate**.
3. Navigate to the location of the file.
4. Select the file.
5. Click **Open**.
6. Click **Save**.

- The certificate attached to the course at the time the certificate is requested will be used.
- If *Default* or *Custom* is selected and the [course's **Send Completion Email** setting](/v1/docs/scorm-course-completion-setup#send-course-completion-notification) is checked, the course completion certificate will be attached to the [Course Completion email](/v1/docs/account-email-template-options#course-completion) that is sent to learners. The [Course Completion to Group Contacts email](/v1/docs/account-email-template-options#course-completion-to-group-contact) will include a link to download the certificate. The [specified contacts](/v1/docs/group-group-information#send-course-completion-notification) will have 72 hours from the time the Course Completion to Group Contacts email is sent to download the course completion certificate.
