You could do this pretty easily with a Quartz job that runs regularly to check what needs to be sent out. Alternatively, if an appropriate event is fired that you could use as a trigger, you could attach an Observer to it and fire your process that way.

iText is a superb PDF library for Java which allows you to create and modify PDF documents. You could generate a certificate and send out a PDF. I've done a lot of this before if you need any assistance with iText.

cheers,
Steve

I don't know of any way to do this but we want to do the same thing: when somebody completes a test in Mneme we want to send them (and a departmental administrator) an email - the original requirement was for a certificate but in the end an Email was thought to be OK.

At the moment we don't have a clear plan but wondered about adding some sort of trigger to either Mneme or Gradebook.

Did anybody respond to you?

Do you want to talk  a bit more about this?

We need to get something done before the summer.
