Understanding/Input As a 21st-century teacher, it’s our ultimate goal to improve learners’ abilities and want them to succeed and excel
in all areas of life. As hyper and flexible teachers we are ready to acquire new skills for our professional growth
and development as well as to keep pace with the rapid change in the environment and in the educational system
in our country. One of the challenges we are facing right now is how techy or good in ICT should a teacher be
nowadays. Thus, the topic Creating of a certificate will be discussed in our training to help us easily create a
certificate and be familiarized with different terms and features in the application we will be using. Creating of

create certificates efficiently because of the features of these applications. We can now create multiple
certificates in just a few clicks on our computer.
