# Certificates

A certificate is issued once you enroll in a program and meet all vendor requirements.

It confirms that you have satisfied the eligibility criteria and are recognized as compliant with SoftwareOne and the vendor’s requirements.

This certification authorizes you to purchase program‑specific products and provides access to all associated benefits, incentives, and entitlements available within the program.
