Please check the screenshot provided. The user which is the certification owner wants to see the status of the ENTIRE certification not just their access review.
You can assign “Compliance Officer” or “Certification Administrator” capability to the certification owners. Compliance officer is broader capability, allows users to view/run different reports along with certifications. Certification Administrator will also allow them to view and manage certification. You can assign one of these based on the requirements.
If you just want to restrict their access to read-only, you can create a custom capability and add SPRights - CertificationCampaignsWidget, ViewCertifications
@LCaulder2 In older versions, prior to 8.x, there used to be a read only access available which was giving access to view all certs from setup→ Certification. But in recent versions, this capability access has been reduced.
You need to assign SPRight: FullAccessCertifications along with CertificationCampaignsWidget to view and access the active campaigns from the home page.

the widget itself doesn’t have a built-in filter for “only show certs I own” — that’s kind of the gap here. it shows all active campaigns to anyone with the right SPRight.
what you can do is create a custom QuickLink or dashboard panel that points directly to a filtered certification list using a custom JSF backing bean — filter by certification.owner = loggedInUser. that way each person only sees the campaigns they own when they land on the home page.
the SPRight combo FullAccessCertifications + CertificationCampaignsWidget gets them into the page, but the owner-scoped filtering on the widget itself needs a small customization — there’s no config toggle for it out of the box unfortunately.
if you want a simpler no-code approach, the closest OOTB option is giving them Compliance Officer or Certification Administrator capability and pointing them to Setup > Certifications — they’ll see all campaigns but can filter by their own name in the owner column. not perfect but works without touching code.
