Unlike the DLP, there is no central record of training undertaken on the DLE. It is incumbent on students to keep certificates and/or screenshots, and on schools to keep records of participation and completion. 

However, in most cases on Defence Learn, it is possible to retrieve a certificate if you have previously completed the course and subsequently unenrolled.  Just re-enrol on the course and under most circumstances the DLE will have retained your progress and you will be able to re-print your certificate without having to redo the course.
