Can certificates be tied to test scores instead of seat time?
Yes. Cognitivv issues verifiable certificates automatically when a learner passes the course assessments — the trigger is a passing score, not hours logged or time spent watching. Managers see completion and results in real time, and the certificate reflects what the learner actually knows.
How it works in Cognitivv
- Course includes built-in assessments. Every AI-generated course ships with auto-generated quizzes and a cumulative final exam — the basis for certification is already part of the course.
- Set a passing score. Admins set the passing score and deadline per course when assigning it to roles, teams, or individuals.
- Learners complete the course and assessments. Progress is tracked per lesson, so managers can see exactly where each learner stands, not just whether they logged in.
- Certify on passing, automatically. Once a learner passes the assessments, Cognitivv issues a verifiable certificate — no manual sign-off, no separate step.
- Managers track it in real time. Completion and certification status roll up on the manager dashboard, per learner, per course.
What it doesn't do
Cognitivv's certificates aren't tied to how long a course window stayed open or how long a learner sat on a page — the trigger is a passing assessment score. Some regulated courses may carry legally mandated minimum durations — where that applies, seat-time is a legal requirement independent of any LMS; confirm the rules for your jurisdiction with your compliance team. Cognitivv's score-based certificate doesn't override that; it's the mechanism for courses where a demonstrated pass, not a clock, is what should matter.
