360Learning Integration
360Learning can issue TRUE certificates as soon as somebody finishes
360Learning has a documented webhook system that tells an external system about an event within seconds to minutes of it happening. Subscribe to the completion event, point it at TRUE, and the learner has a branded, blockchain secured certificate on your own domain almost as soon as they finish.
TL;DR
360Learning works on subscriptions: you say which event you care about and where to send it, and the platform delivers a notification in near real time. TRUE receives the completion, issues the certificate against the matching design and delivers it. An administrator sets up the subscription, we set up the matching certificate, and after that nobody has to do anything per learner.
- Nothing to build. Webhooks are documented as part of 360Learning, so connecting TRUE is configuration.
- Near real time. The platform delivers within seconds to minutes, so the certificate arrives while the course is still fresh.
- Then it runs itself. Every completion issues a certificate, for every learner.
How does the 360Learning certificate integration work?
360Learning already knows when somebody finishes, and its webhook system exists so another tool can act on it without polling for changes. TRUE is the tool on the other end: it takes the notification, issues the certificate and delivers it.
1
Create the subscription in 360Learning
An administrator creates a webhook subscription for the completion event and gives it the address we provide. It is the same mechanism 360Learning documents for any other integration.
2
We match your programmes once
We line each programme up with the certificate it should issue, so the right name lands on the right credential. It is done once, at setup.
3
Certificates issue themselves
On completion the learner receives a branded, blockchain secured certificate with a permanent verification link. Nobody has to trigger it.
What does the certificate carry?
The learner name, the programme, your organisation and the date it was issued, written to blockchain at the moment of issue so it cannot be edited or backdated afterwards.
- Learner name and programme. Taken from the 360Learning completion itself, so it matches your content exactly.
- Your organisation. The certificate is branded as yours and lives on your own domain.
- Date of issue, fixed. Written to blockchain at issuance, which is what makes backdating impossible.
- A permanent verification link. An employer confirms it by opening the link or scanning the QR code, without contacting you.
What has to be in place before it can be switched on?
Administrator access in 360Learning and a certificate design. The administrator part is one subscription. The design is either one we build to your graphic profile or one you adapt yourself from a template, and it is the only part that takes any real decision making.
- 360Learning administrator access, which is what creating a webhook subscription needs.
- The programmes you want covered, so the matching step covers the right catalogue from the start.
- A certificate design, built by us to your profile or adapted by you from an existing template.
What does a learner receive?
A branded, animated certificate delivered by email, on your own domain rather than ours. It carries a QR code and a permanent verification URL, so anyone can confirm it without contacting you, and it goes onto a LinkedIn profile in one click.
- Beautifully designed. Animated, branded and interactive rather than a static PDF.
- A shareable link. One URL that works in an email signature, a portfolio or a CV.
- QR code verification. An employer, a client or a regulator confirms the credential instantly.
- LinkedIn ready. Added to a profile in one click, which puts your name in front of their network.
- Blockchain secured. It cannot be edited, forged or backdated after issue.
How is learner data handled?
360Learning passes the learner name, email address and the programme details to TRUE, which is what a certificate needs to exist. Nothing else is sent, because nothing else is needed.
TRUE is hosted in the EU, and we sign a data processing agreement with you before anything is switched on.
How much has TRUE issued for organisations like yours?
More than 500,000 documents for over 200 organisations in 15 or more countries, and credentials shared by their recipients have produced over 100 million marketing impressions. These are TRUE platform figures, not third party research.
500K+ Documents issued
200+ Organisations
15+ Countries
100M+ Marketing impressions
Is a 360Learning completion on its own enough?
It proves the programme was completed inside your organisation, which is enough internally. What it cannot do is prove anything to somebody outside it, and that is the part the connection adds.
| Capability | Completion on its own | Completion with TRUE connected |
|---|---|---|
| Proof outside your organisation | The reader has to take it on trust | A permanent verification link anyone can open |
| Tamper proof | No | Yes, written to blockchain at issue |
| Lives on your domain | No | Yes, branded on your own domain |
| LinkedIn shareable | A file to attach | One click add to LinkedIn |
| Effort per participant | Manual handling for anything formal | None, it issues on completion |
| Speed | Not applicable | Delivered in near real time, seconds to minutes |
| Analytics | None | Views, shares and verifications tracked |
What do 360Learning administrators ask about this?
Mostly whether anything has to be built, how quickly the certificate arrives and who can set it up. Nothing, within minutes, and an administrator.
Does the 360Learning integration have to be built?
No. 360Learning documents a webhook system with event subscriptions. Connecting TRUE is creating one subscription and pointing it at the address we give you.
How quickly does the certificate arrive?
360Learning delivers its notifications in near real time, described in its own documentation as seconds to minutes. The certificate follows immediately after.
Who can set it up?
A 360Learning administrator. It does not need a developer and it does not need anything installed.
Can we start with one programme?
Yes, and we usually suggest it. A subscription can cover a single programme first, and you widen it once you have seen a real certificate arrive.
Do participants need a TRUE account?
No. The certificate arrives by email with a unique link. No login, no account and no app.
Can the certificate carry our own design?
Yes. We build the design to your graphic profile, or you adapt one from an existing template. The certificate is branded as yours and lives on your own domain.
Can we issue certificates for courses that already finished?
Yes. Earlier completions can be issued as a batch, so a backlog does not have to be handled by hand.
What does a recipient do with the certificate?
Share it. It is a link rather than a file, so it goes on a LinkedIn profile in one click and into an email signature or CV, and every share points back to a verification page carrying your name.
Ready to switch it on?
We prepare your certificate design and give you the address for the subscription, and the next learner who finishes receives a verifiable credential.
