HubSpot Solutions Partner Accreditations

To apply, your organization must be at the platinum, diamond, or elite tier. From there, review the prerequisite certifications and casework requirements for the accreditation you're pursuing, and submit your application when your organization is ready. HubSpot operates on rolling admission, so there's no deadline to work around.

A group of one to five people at the partner organization must meet the certification prerequisites. You can divide the prerequisites among this group to meet the requirements, but you cannot include more than five individuals.

Here are some examples of how you can split the prereqs among your team:

• Persons one, two, and three complete the Marketing Hub Implementation certification
• Persons  three, four, and five complete the Sales Hub Implementation certification
• Persons two, three, and five complete the Marketing Hub Software certification

No. Accreditations and other credentials each carry their own benefits, including differentiation in the marketplace and eligibility for certain opportunities. Inclusion in specific matching programs is handled on a case-by-case basis and is not automatic upon earning an accreditation.

Partners from any region can apply if they meet the requirements.

CRM Implementation and Onboarding Accreditations accept applications in English, Spanish, and French.

All other accreditations require applications and supporting documents to be submitted in English. The majority of prerequisite certifications are available in HubSpot Academy in Spanish, French, and German. Further localization is on the roadmap.

Partners who complete the full application process but are not awarded an accreditation may reapply six months after being declined, provided they still meet the eligibility requirements. The six-month waiting period applies only to partners who complete the full process. If your application didn't advance past the prerequisite stage, this waiting period does not apply. You may also apply for a different accreditation during the waiting period.

You must be at the platinum, diamond, or elite tier to apply for and hold an accreditation. If your organization downtiers below platinum after receiving an accreditation, the accreditation will be revoked.

The learning path site estimates that it takes approximately 35 hours to complete the prerequisites if you haven’t yet completed any of the certifications prior to applying. If you’ve already completed a certification, you can subtract the total number of hours it took to complete from the estimated 35. Check out the website linked above to learn how many hours each certification is estimated to take.

Please note: Because we ask for artifacts that you should have already produced for customer engagements, we hope that it will take you less time to assemble.

For example, you may only need to tweak an existing project plan or integration doc to include the required data points (size of company, etc.).

The HubSpot Solutions Directory lists all HubSpot solutions partners and providers. It allows customers to search and filter by accreditation, badge, service type, country, language, and budget.

If your organization fully acquires another partner and becomes a single brand entity, all accreditations are granted to the acquiring company. If the acquisition results in a fiscal partnership where both entities remain separate, each entity retains its own accreditations and none are shared.

Accredited partners are required to meet ongoing standards to maintain and renew their accreditation status. These include staying at or above the Platinum tier, keeping prerequisite certifications active and in good standing, and continuing to deliver high-quality services to clients as defined by your accreditation. Failure to meet these standards may result in accreditation revocation at renewal.
