- **Description Text:** Small black text, concise and clear.

## Visual Design Guidelines

### Color Scheme

- **Primary Color:** Economist Red #E3120B (for key data and alerts only)

- **Basic Colors**: See reference image

- **Logo:** Maintain the original design and color scheme.

### Icon System

- **Knowledge/Learning**: A minimalist line drawing of stacked books and light bulbs.

- **Growth/Achievements**: Upward arrows or bar charts

- **Risk/Warning**: Exclamation mark, warning symbol

- **Support/Services**: Checkmarks, gears, tools, etc.

- All icons use the same lines as the reference image, with consistent line width and a minimalist style.

### Certification Marking Standards

- **Location:** Top right corner

- **Arrangement**: Horizontal arrangement

**Requirement:** Maintain the original design without any modifications.

- **Size**: Clearly distinguishable but does not detract from the focus of the main content.
