An internship certificate confirms that a student or trainee completed an internship with you, for how long and on what work. This internship certificate format is what colleges and future employers ask for.
01
It is issued on the last day of the internship or soon after, once the supervisor confirms completion. HR or the department head signs it. Colleges often need it to award credits, so it should be ready before the intern leaves.

An experience letter certifies employment. An internship certificate certifies a training placement, which may or may not have been employment. Use the right one so the intern's status is not misdescribed when it is later verified.
Watch for itName the actual project. A certificate that only says "completed an internship" is less useful to the intern and to anyone verifying it.
Replace everything in [square brackets]. Have your own legal or HR adviser review the final wording for your organisation.

Whether an internship is treated as employment, and what rules then apply, depends on the arrangement and applicable law. Set the terms in an internship letter at the start.
Some organisations add a short assessment at the college's request. Keep it factual and consistent with the supervisor's review.
Certify the actual dates. Do not state the planned end date.
