There's a monthly "Qualifying Run" that you can copy, send your
results to ARRL, and (if 100% correct for = 1 minute) receive a
certificate in return.
What does one do with such a certificate?

I keep it in a 3 ring binder with my special events certificate myself. ?
Same here.
What I did was to get a pack of plastic "sheet protectors" and put the
various important Amateur Radio papers in them so there's no need to
punch holes. Original license, various awards, membership
certificates, etc. Inexpensive and easy.
At the time that I took my 5wpm and 13wpm tests, I was dissatisfied with my
copy even though I passed. ?For my personal satisfaction, I worked for the
Code Proficiency Certificate and received one for 10wpm with an endorsement
for 15wpm.
I got up to 30 wpm way back in the late 1960s. Lots of stickers on
that certificate!
Perhaps I shall do it all over again, this time with a mill, and my
new callsign.

Jim, what's your new callsign?
