Here's another simple example based on a project we are doing for a customer. Since a certificate will be issued we make sure our users have entered both first and last name and use this information to address the user during the training.

P.S. The Print date on the certificate is some JavaScript magic I found here on the forums.

I really like that idea - putting the name on a certificate. I might use that sometime.

Just keep in mind that printing or saving the certificate can be quite a hassle. Especially with certain browsers.
