MTF Institute Programs: Frequently Asked Questions

At the end of an eligible course in edu.gtf.pt, use the certificate control shown in the course or the My certificates area. The system generates the digital certificate and MTF Student ID from the learner profile.

Check the name before generating a document

The First name and Last name fields determine the printed name. If the name has several parts, arrange them across those fields in the preferred order. Long names may need a shorter presentation to fit the design. A later profile change affects only documents generated after that change.

1. Sign in to the MTF learning portal.
2. Open the profile and verify the name.
3. Complete the eligible course requirements.
4. Open My certificates or the certificate control at the end of the course.
5. Review the generated document before using it publicly.

Use this route when Udemy has issued a course-completion certificate.

1. Create an account at edu.gtf.pt.
2. Complete at least one eligible MTF course on Udemy.

4. Make the First name and Last name in the MTF profile match the Udemy profile exactly. Copy and paste the name to avoid spelling differences.
5. Open the MTF certificate generator.
6. Select Udemy courses and choose the completed course.
7. Open the Udemy certificate and copy its complete URL from the browser address bar. Do not type the URL from the visible certificate design.

A Udemy certificate URL normally begins with https://www.udemy.com/certificate/.

An eligible MTF digital credential can be added to LinkedIn so visitors can follow an active credential link.

1. Generate the MTF credential while signed in to edu.gtf.pt.
2. Sign in to LinkedIn in the same browser.
3. Use the LinkedIn action shown beside the generated credential.
4. Review the certificate name, issuing organization, issue date and credential URL before saving.

Only publish information that is accurate and consistent with the completed course.

• Write the learner name in English on both platforms.
• Make the Udemy name and the MTF profile name identical. Copy and paste instead of retyping.
• Use the First name and Last name fields to arrange multi-part names in the preferred order.
• Keep the displayed name short enough to fit the certificate design.
• Create an account at edu.gtf.pt before using the generator.
• Select Udemy courses for courses with a Udemy certificate and Udemy Certifications for eligible assessments without one.
• Copy the complete certificate or public-profile URL from the browser address bar.
• If a name is changed after a document is generated, create a new document after updating the profile; an existing file does not change automatically.

Many MTF programs are self-paced, but access periods differ by product and platform. The current program page and checkout terms are the controlling source. A course may later be archived in accordance with those terms.

Refund eligibility depends on the seller, platform, purchase date, course consumption and whether a credential has already been issued. Use the terms presented at checkout or by the partner platform. Do not rely on an old general FAQ statement where the current product terms differ.

MTF uses its own digital systems and selected partners, including Udemy, for some learning routes. Eligible partner-platform learners may still receive an MTF digital credential after the required verification.

A digital letter of recommendation may be prepared only for eligible learners in the Advanced Executive Program in Management and Business Administration after successful completion of the capstone project. The capstone provides evidence of the skills being endorsed. The eligible digital letter is provided without an additional fee.

Ordering physical certificates is temporarily unavailable while MTF arranges a new logistics partner. Digital documents remain available for eligible completions. Current availability and pricing will be published when the service resumes.

MTF direct programs are professional and business education. Their certificates document professional learning and practical skill development. They are not academic degrees or diplomas, do not confer academic credits and must not be represented as a regulated university award.

The exact credential, curriculum and assessment are stated on each program page. Portugal-facing institutional and regulatory information remains available at gtf.pt.

Qualified professionals can propose work as an independent instructor, faculty contributor or project expert. Send a CV, LinkedIn profile and concise proposal to welcome@gtf.pt.

Organizations interested in corporate learning, research or partnership work can review MTF solutions for business and describe the objective, audience, geography and expected timing in their enquiry.
