In our department, we often encounter situations where we need to remove a certificate from a learner's training record. It's a straightforward task, or so we thought. Deleting the certificate from the Certificate Template page might seem like the logical solution, but here's the catch: even after deletion, the certificate stubbornly persists in the User Personal Summary page for the learner. It's like trying to erase a mark on a whiteboard, only to find it faintly visible under the surface. 🤔

Unfortunately, there's no direct method to completely expunge the certificate without resorting to drastic measures. One option suggested by a Docebo support agent is to unenroll the learner, effectively wiping out their entire training history in the process. It's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut – overly destructive and far from ideal. 😖

I’m curious, have you tried archiving without the renrolling option, I imagine that won’t wipe it, but just guessing. Ive seen some folks do the support suggestion and they essentially do it in a monthly ‘dispositioning’ and part of that process is pulling a report before doing and those reports act as the history. Annoying.


I’m having an issue with this too.  I need a way to bulk delete certificates issued in error.  I can’t find anything in the API to do this.  Hoping someone can help direct me to the right solution.  Seems like if someone’s completion status is changed from Completed to In Progress or other, the certificate should automatically be wiped. Or at minimum, now display no dates etc.
