Where do you keep your diplomas/certs? - collegechick - 06-19-2021
Just curious where you keep your diplomas and certs? Do you hang yours up or keep them in a binder in plastic?

I will be hanging mine in my office as soon as we move into our new house. But right now, they're in boxes.

What a great idea to name your folder! I love it!

Diplomas are on my home office wall, certifications are in a filing cabinet. Although I did have some of my "better" certs on my wall in my traditional office before i started working from home.

I buy multiple copies of diplomas. Extras go in a file. Those that are required for employment paperwork for working abroad are kept in a separate folder. First copies are framed and either placed on a wall, or kept in a safe place.

All except my EBS MBA is rolled up in a cardboard tube. The EBS one on the wall because in Edinburgh I bought a nice sketch of the city from a local artist and had it framed with the diploma.

I have a box off of old grade school yearbooks and related stuff. My diplomas are in that box. I also made copies of them which have in my personal files in an employment file folder. So if any job needs a copy of them I have it ready to go. I also have sealed copies of my transcripts in that folder as well.
The other I did is I took all my diplomas (currently have 4 associates degrees, 3 undergrad certificates and 1 bachelors) and made copies down to around 2x4. Then I glued the copies and on to a fancy piece of paper and put it in a frame. So it is only one frame with a bunch of small degrees in it. I keep it hanging on my wall. I figure this makes more sense than taking up a bunch of wall space and looks less pretentious. Plus I can add more degrees later or get a bigger frame.
Also the community college I went to offers free lifetime access to digital diplomas now. But the only bad part is that it only exists for classes that graduating the semester after I did.

I have one of those three-section legal folders that I added some extra binding clips to that I filled with document protectors. Section one has copies of all of my transcripts and academic exam score reports (CLEP/DDST/GRE). Section two has all of my diplomas, certificates, awards, letters of commendation, etc. Section three has all of my certification exam score reports.
I have a similar setup for my financials folder: section one has family documents such as birth certificates and marriage records, section two has records of all of my accounts like 401k's and insurance documents. Section three has 10 years of tax records.

I have 3 that are worth saving. They're in a waterproof box that is in a waterproof box. I've never been one to hang them up.
