    12. IMPORTANT: The courses offered at PoCA are open indefinitely so that participants can take them at any time, within their interest and time availability. Therefore, it is not possible to state in the certificates the start and end dates of the courses. The certificates include the name of the course, name of the participant, grade, program content, workload, and date of issue of the certificate, with the possibility of verifying authenticity by means of the code on their back.
      It is important to check whether your name is correctly spelled on your profile before generating the certificate. Once generated, we will no longer be able to change the name registered on the certificate, so, please, double check it.
