PLATFORM · RENEWALS ARE REVENUE

Renewals are revenue. Bring every delegate back.

For a certification-led training business, renewals are the most predictable revenue there is. Hotline tracks every certificate through its life: who is valid, who is due, who has lapsed, and brings each of them back to rebook without you chasing.

The recertification board: counts of expired and soon-to-expire certificates, and each delegate with a date to rebook

Retire the expiry spreadsheet.

Every certificate that lapses without a reminder is a renewal booking you did not get, and a delegate working uncertified. Tracking that in a spreadsheet is how renewals slip through.

The old way

  • Expiry dates in a spreadsheet somebody has to remember to check
  • Renewal reminders written and sent by hand, or not at all
  • No view of who is certified right now across every customer
  • Re-running a course overwrites the old result and its history
  • Legacy certificates from your old system left behind

With Hotline

  • Reminders that link straight to your next course date with free seats
  • A live board of every certificate: valid, expiring, in grace, expired
  • Automatic reminders at 90, 60, 30 and 0 days, with the manager copied
  • Renewals run as a clean fresh course; the old certificate and history stay intact
  • Historic certificates imported from CSV, straight into the same cycle

The renewal cycle, on autopilot.

01

Set validity

Give a course a certificate validity period: 12 months, 36 months, whatever the standard requires. Every certificate issued carries its expiry date.

02

Delegates are nudged

At 90, 60, 30 and 0 days before expiry, delegates get branded reminder emails and in-app notifications with a link to renew. Optionally copy in their manager.

03

They rebook

The reminder links to your next date with free seats, or to a shorter refresher mapped to the course. Admins can rebook anyone from the dashboard too.

04

History preserved

The renewal is a clean, fresh run: new progress, new attempts, new certificate. The old certificate and every prior attempt stay on record for audits.

Everything the renewal cycle needs.

Rebook into your next date Expiry reminders link straight to your next scheduled course date with free seats, and admins can rebook an expiring delegate into an upcoming date from the dashboard.
Recertification dashboard A live matrix of valid, expiring within 90 days, in grace, and expired certificates, per delegate and per customer organisation, with one-click renewal actions.
Automatic expiry reminders A 90, 60, 30 and 0 day reminder ladder by email and in-app notification, each sent at most once, with rebook links built in.
Refresher course variants Map a shorter refresher to its parent course. Renewing delegates take the refresher, and their certificate renews with the parent course validity.
Historic certificate import Bring certificates from your previous system in by CSV, with a dry run first and per-line error reporting. Imported certificates join the same expiry cycle.
Shared modules Author a module once, attach it to any number of courses, and a completion in one place counts everywhere within the recency window you set. Update the material and require re-completion when it matters.
Prerequisites with recency Require a prerequisite completed within a set window, not just ever. A five-year-old completion can be treated as expired knowledge and refreshed first.
Verifiable certificates Every certificate has a public verification link, so an employer or an auditor can confirm it is valid in seconds.
