I want to ask this question to the people of the Hubspot Community that do the Hubspot Academy courses hold good enough credibility for recruiters and companies to actually consider like Google, IBM, Microsoft or Facebook certifications?
Hi @SSahijwani, I hope that you are well!
Thanks for asking the HubSpot Community!
I know that in the past, some Community Members shared that the HubSpot Academy certifications helped them land a job.
I’d love to put you in touch with some of our Top Experts and Community Members who also took some HubSpot Academy courses: Hi @Pirbhuchetan, @KAldrich1, @dmarthi, @TSmith20, @PRisman, @karstenkoehler, @danmoyle, @Sjardo and @Olivia_Bagnall did the HubSpot Academy certifications help you in a job search or to validate some particular skills for you?
Have a brilliant day and thanks a lot in advance for your feedback!

Great question @SSahijwani. In my experience, the certifications definitely hold credibility with the right people. If they aren’t up on HubSpot, they may not see value. But in the HubSpot ecosystem, certifications certainly count for experience, knowledge, and a drive to better yourself. Honestly, I feel like they’re more important than any college experience or education I’ve had (because that was 20+ years ago and HubSpot is current).
Of course, certifications aren’t accreditations, so some folks may not give them as much weight. But overall in the HubSpot world, they’re a major positive.
