You’ve done the hard work, it’s time to recognise your newly gained skills and experience.

Website Badge

A ‘DTC Certified’ website badge is available for business owners upon the completion of an Investment Course. The badge comes in a number of colour combinations, so you can choose one that best suit your site.

Displaying a ‘DTC Certified’ badge on your business website adds credibility to your brand and lets potential clients know that you are committed to maintaining an exceptional standard in your work.

When ordering a physical certificate, you will have the option to request your website badges as well. If you ONLY want your website badge, please complete your request via the below button.

Digital Certificates

From 14th October 2021, a digital Certificate of Completion will be automatically issued upon the completion of a DTC online course (both mini and investment courses). These certificates can be downloaded and printed on your choice of cardstock by your trusted local printer should you wish to show them off.

If you have completed a DTC online course prior to the above date and would like to receive a digital certificate of completion, please email  your request along with your Teachable account details to classes@donttellcharles.com.au

Frequently Asked Questions

When on our school platform, Teachable, the certificate will appear on the screen once you have completed the final course lecture. You can click the Download button underneath the certificate to save the certificate to your local computer or device.

For more on how to access your certificate, please see here

You can download your digital certificate as a .pdf file.

Mini courses are bite sized, quick to consume courses that usually teach one particular recipe or technique. While the skills learnt from these courses are extremely beneficial, they alone do not meet the DTC Certified Standards for the physical certificate & website badge to be issued.

You have the option to request a website badge when ordering your physical certificate. Alternatively, if you ONLY want the website badge, you can submit your request here.
