What is World Certification Week?

What started as a one-day celebration of knowledge in 2020 has since transformed into an annual event where learners, HubSpot customers, and partners to come together to learn, hear from industry experts, get certified to stand out, and help local communities.

The impact of World Certification Week goes beyond enabling learners to grow their careers or get accredited. For every certification awarded during the event, HubSpot will donate $5 USD to an education-focused charity (up to $50,000 USD).

By completing a certification, you will be supporting organizations that nurture youth to tackle societal problems through social entrepreneurship or that help to ensure that all children have an opportunity for education.
