# Set a default image for programs and certifications

Each program and certification is represented by an image in the [catalogue](/17/docs/what-iss-the-catalogue). You should give each program/certification a unique image while creating them, but you can set a default image that will be used if creators forget to upload a unique image.

To set a default image for programs or certifications, follow these steps:

1. Go to *Quick-access menu > Programs* or *Certifications**.*
2. Select the **Set default image for all programs** / **Set default image for all certifications** link.
3. Drag and drop or upload an image in the **Default image** field.
4. Select **Save changes**.

Alternatively, you can follow these steps if you're using the Ventura theme:

1. Go to *Quick-access menu > Appearance > Ventura*.
2. Select the **Images** tab.
3. Scroll down to the **Learn** section.
4. For the **Program** or **Certification** fields, click **Add**.
5. Select an image file and click **Open**.
6. Click **Save** once you have added default images for each content type.
