Is your Notable Networker certificate notable?

15/5/10

In our chapters every month we recognise two outstanding members by presenting them with notable networker certificates and, on occasion, a blue badge.

But, quite often, the quality of the certificate presented does not reflect the true achievement of the member.

I’ve seen a certificate written in biro just passed down the table. What value does that put on the presentation and what the member has done? How do you think that member feels?

So, first off, the certificate should be in a nice frame but, more importantly, it must be beautifully written. Now, few of us have lovely hand-writing, let alone are skilled in calligraphy. So, how about this for an idea that I was given by Colin Read, Area Director, from Scotland South and East?

For a beautiful looking certificate just set up a template in Word or Publisher, using a font such as Lucida Calligraphy (bold), and then every certificate your chapter presents will match the achievements of your members.

So simple, but I’ve never thought of doing it!
