Design notes
This landscape design is drawn as a sheet of genko yoshi, the squared manuscript paper Japanese students write their compositions on. A band of three writing columns runs down the right edge, with にほんご written in the first column and circled by a teacher's vermilion brush loop. The open sheet to the left holds the logo, the title, the recipient's name, a statement, the course, a two-column skills list, the duration, level, issue date and credential ID, two signatures and the QR code. It suits language schools, universities and tutors.
About
Japanese Course Certificate Template, Manuscript Sheet
A Japanese language course certificate is given when a learner finishes a block of study: a beginner evening class, a term at a language school, a university extension course or a company programme for staff who work with Japanese partners. It records the hours of tuition, the skills practised, from hiragana and katakana to a first set of kanji and polite keigo, and often the JLPT level the course prepares for, so the next teacher or an employer can see where the learner stands.
Wording on the template“has completed 60 hours of Japanese language study, learning to read and write hiragana, katakana and a first set of kanji, to understand everyday spoken Japanese, and to hold simple conversations in polite, natural Japanese.”More wording ideas for japanese certificates

Post for the recipient to share
I have just completed a 60-hour Japanese course. Six months ago hiragana looked like a puzzle; now I can read both kana scripts, write my first kanji and introduce myself in polite Japanese. Thank you to my teacher for every patient correction and to my classmates for the practice. Next step: JLPT N5. #Japanese #LanguageLearning

Printing
Printing it well
Print at actual size
Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.
Use card, not paper
A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.
Frame it
A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it on its side, as designed.
Mind the edges
Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
