Good afternoon,

I finish the TESOL Methodology (K12-12/HE) module, but I could not get my certificate of completion. What I can do?

You have asked your question in a global community of canvas users who cannot answer course-specific questions. You will need to ask your instructor or whomever has sponsored this course. This guide will help you contact your teacher https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10574-4212710325

Hi  @dawn_ross  Welcome to the Canvas Community!

Canvas does not include a functionality to award completion certificates. There are lots of work-rounds and third-party tools out there that you might like to investigate. 

Canvas Catalog courses do offer Certs, and perhaps that is what you are looking for. If so, here are some help.......

• How do I add a certificate of completion for a Catalog course? 
• How do I view the certificate of completion for a Catalog course or program? 
• https://community.canvaslms.com/groups/apac/blog/2019/05/17/certificates-for-partial-and-full-course... 

I hope this helps,
