The portal description and how to use it

Applies to: All plans · Last updated October 8, 2026

Certifying bodies ask for a short description when you submit credit. MyCertRenewal keeps one, written in your own voice, ready to paste.

Write it once

  1. When you log an activity, write the Description in the first person, for example “I attended three days of sessions on security governance and incident response.”
  2. It appears on the activity page as Portal description, ready to paste.

Paste it when you file

  1. Open the Submission queue. It lists every claim not yet accepted, by certification, soonest deadline first.
  2. Each claim shows its description with a Copy button. Paste it into the certifying body’s portal.
  3. Working through several claims in one sitting? Select Open run sheet, then select Mark submitted when you are done (it shows the count, for example Mark 5 submitted). The run sheet also has Print / PDF.

Good to know

  • Describe what you did and learned, not the event’s marketing copy. Certifying bodies look for content that relates to the certification.
