A3 Lifetime Achievement Award Certificate

We are excited to bring a "New" product to our portfolio of services.
A lifetime achievement award certificate.
Just double click on the image to bring up in your documents viewer.

The service is two-fold:-
(1) The development of your own personal A3 certificate template. 
This is a bit of a "loss leader" for Soto Sabisu, but it keeps your up-front costs as low as possible.
The purple bits in the template above.
You can use use any of our six standard style formats of Wado Ryu, Shotokan, Shinto Ryu, Goju Ryu or Karate-do (at no additional cost) or choose to fully customise your style/name, logo and hanko to your club or association (for an additional cost).
You also choose up to two appointments for officials, their positions and names translated and appear vertically in the main text and horizontally at the base of the certificate, all included in the price.

(2) The production of Individual A3 certificates. 
The Blue bits in the template above.
Including the candidates name translated into katakana, title, grade and date in kanji.

We have kept our costs as low as possible by producing an "Electronic" Service Only.
The template is held by Soto Sabisu to ensure all future certificates follow the same layout.
Individual certificates are sent to you in a high resolution pdf file format.

All you have to do is get them printed off at your local printers.
So there is no chance of them getting lost or damaged in the post and you have incurred no postage or insurance charges.
