Hi,
Try not to leave the awards section empty but also don't create stories about awards if you were not granted one. The difference between awards and certificates is that you have to be selected for an award and hence it is an achievement while certificates are not necessarily dependent on your achievement.
Think broader than traditional awards - any performance related award - at work, at extra-curricular etc..
Hope this helps,
Don't hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions.
