Certificates of Completion on Panopto Video/quizes

I am looking but unable to find information on offering a certificate of completion for students who view a Panopto video. We have a department who would like to offer multiple videos to many students who would then need to prove to their faculty member that they have completed a Panopto video/quiz. Is this a feature that Panopto offers or would consider creating?

This being said, we understand how to feed an individual video into an LMS gradebook. I thought with the viewer timing and/or quiz completion statistics that Panopto may already have a way to create a PDF or other confirmation of completion. Any thoughts are appreciated.

    Hi @Richard Palmer,

    We currently do not have a feature that offers a certificate of completion; however, there are a couple of options for how someone can access quizzing and viewing statistics to determine who has taken a quiz or watched a video:

    By following the steps in How to Add a Quiz to a Video: Viewing Quizzing Results, anyone with Creator or a higher-level access to a video can download a .csv report that includes information about who has taken a quiz and their results.

    For viewing statistics, anyone with Creator or higher-level access could use the folder or session-level statistics report function, as detailed in Learn About Folder and Session Level Statistics.

    • For a folder, they can run the "User Completion" report to export a .csv report and then use the Name, Session Name, and Percent Completed columns in that report to see who has watched the video, and the percentage completed.
    • For an individual video, they can scroll down to the bottom of its statistics window and select "See All" on the "Top Viewers" table to see a full list of who has watched the video, and the percentage completed. They also have the option to download this report. I recommend reviewing the items in step 2.5 of the article, as there are some considerations to make.

    If you would like, you can submit a Feature Request for certificates of completion on videos here: New Feature Request.

    If you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask - we're always happy to help!

    Best wishes,
    Cait

  • Thank you Caitlin,

    While this doesn't give me an easy solution it is good information. I will pass it on the requesting department with some other design & delivery ideas and let them choose the best fit for their needs.

    Appreciatively, Richard
