- When you are finished, download the certificate of completion, upload it to this wiki and link to it on your individual journal page. Be sure to change the filename so that it is specific to you (e.g., add your last name or username to the filename) because there will be 6 of you uploading similar files.

- Go to Settings page, click on link to "Show advanced settings"
