Certifiers perform certifications, but whom do they certify? I'm not able to find the related form in a few different dictionaries:
- Cambridge
- Merriam-Webster
- Dictionary.com
The word I would choose is 'certee', but that is not recognized as a word in said dictionaries. For example, "The certee proudly displayed her certificate in a prominent location."

It's a bit of a "nonce word" (certainly not in the full OED), but here's this from Dominion Law Reports (1912) - The certificate there had issued, as stated above, subject to two encumbrances put on by the certificatee herself. IMHO, "certee" is a non-starter.

Thank you @FumbleFingers; prompted by your suggestion, I've found several usages of 'certificatee' throughout the last century. If you would like to convert your comment into an answer, I'll be happy to accept it as the correct answer.

I'm afraid I closevoted (as Primarily Opinion-Based), so I don't think I'll do that. The bottom line is that so far as I'm concerned there is no single-word term for the meaning you seek. But English is nothing if not flexible, so I coined the nonce word myself, and double-checked the full OED to confirm that they don't list it (as expected). Then I searched for it in Google Books (and found some instances - again, as expected). There might be other terms with broadly overlapping meaning, but I can only see one credible "nonce derivative" based on the root word certify.

I'm afraid I closevoted (as Primarily Opinion-Based), so I don't think I'll do that. The bottom line is that so far as I'm concerned there is no single-word term for the meaning you seek. But English is nothing if not flexible, so I coined the nonce word myself, and double-checked the full OED to confirm that they don't list it (as expected). Then I searched for it in Google Books (and found some instances - again, as expected). There might be other terms with broadly overlapping meaning, but I can only see one credible "nonce derivative" based on the root word certify.
