Logos

Upload your organization logo to appear in the application header. See Image sizes overview: logos, course images and certificates for advice about image sizes and formats.

Set your logo image sizes: 

  • Header Logo: maximum height of 72 pixels

Tip: To view your squared logo in the application, upload a logo and resize your browser screen.

  1. From Logos, select Upload image.
  2. Select a file from your drive. The application opens the file in the cropping tool, with the maximum image size featured.

  2. In Link text, enter a text for the link.
