To manage one or more **Certifications** for a specific **Employee**, open the page of the **Employee**, navigate to the **Certifications** section of the page, select the **Certification** to be managed, and select the **Manage** button.

### Step 1: Details

1. Confirm the **Certification** of the **Employee** that should be managed.
