*What is certification?*
A certification is an official recognition that you have been trained by a Top Hat trainer in an interactive face-to-face session that offers a great insight into Top Hat classroom engagement techniques and practices. Certification is what makes you stand out as an innovative educator and a mentor to your colleagues who are interested in transforming their classrooms with Top Hat. Upon completion, you will receive an official electronic certificate that can be shared with your professional network on LinkedIn.
