World Certification Week is here: We want to hear from you!

World Certification Week is back for the 5th time! Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, grow, and impact your community.

What is World Certification Week?

World Certification Week (WCW) :globe_showing_americas::globe_showing_europe_africa::globe_showing_asia_australia: is an annual virtual event hosted by HubSpot Academy, focusing on professional growth and giving back. During this week, individuals and HubSpot Partners are encouraged to complete certifications that enhance their skills in areas such as marketing, sales, and technology.

For every certification completed, HubSpot donates $5 (up to $25,000 total) to global education-focused nonprofits—this year benefiting Teach for All and Laboratoria. Alongside certifications, WCW also offers live online events and talks on trending topics like AI, scheduled across different time zones to support learners worldwide. It’s a week of learning with purpose.

Hi everyone, I’m Amit Kumar.
I recently created a LinkedIn page focused on education, awareness, and training in the shipping, logistics, and DG sectors. While I’m passionate about sharing valuable content, I’m currently not getting much traction or engagement.

I was also planning to launch a newsletter from the page, but I noticed that the newsletter option isn’t available yet — I understand this may be something to check with LinkedIn support.

In the meantime, I’d really appreciate any advice on building an effective content strategy and creating high-demand, impactful posts that truly serve the community.

Thanks in advance for your support and guidance!

Hi everyone. My name is Andrew Little and I’m a freelance writer based out of Southern Maryland. I’ve recently decided to explore sales after months of slow progress and a decline in clients and job offers; which I believe A.I is mostly the cause.

Is there an easy approach to adapting the inbound sales process to social selling and promoting affiliate or drop shipping offers directly to people who’ve followed me on LinkedIn and Facebook? It will be personalized engagement(s) and nothing spammy or automated, but I would like to use this as a temporary option to make some money when I’m in between jobs and clients in this slow freelance writing market…

Hello Everyone,

Hi, my name is Abhishek Branwal.

I am from a small and beautiful town named Ranchi, in eastern part of India.

I am currently working as a BDR(Inside Sales), in a B2B SaaS based company. I am dealing with global clients offering a software solution that helps a business to get an online platform from which they can start taking orders, manage them in the backend, till delivery and feedback. This software is created for a very niche market (milk/water delivery business).

Certifications I’m planning on getting on WCW: Certifications that are directly going to help me understand the market, customer psychology, and gonna help me boost my sales. Plus, help me acheive my long term goal of a key account manager role.

:brain: My best learning tip: Consistency is the key.

Hi, my name is Andy graphic designer by heart and strategist by instinct.

I’m based in Madrid, but my mind’s always ten steps ahead, chasing stories, solving problems, and shaping brands. As part of my digital marketing bootcamp, I joined HubSpot. What started as a course quickly became a passion, now I’m obsessed with how content moves people, builds loyalty, and drives action.

I’m especially curious about content marketing and inbound strategy, and I’m here not just to learn, but to grow my connection circle and to exchange ideas, push boundaries, and grow with people who think deeper, sharper, and bolder.

Certifications I’m pursuing: Anything that helps me understand behavior, brand storytelling, and automation. My goal? To lead creative strategy from the inside out—and make people feel seen.

My best learning tip: Don’t just study, question everything you do. Strip it down, rebuild it in your voice.
