New Certifications will be valid for one calendar year from initial confirmed eligibility. When existing certifications are renewed, the expiration date will be extended one full calendar year. For example, renewing your certificate would push an expiration date of November 15, to November 15, .
How do we start?
Partners can earn their certifications by having employees sign up for cPanel University utilizing their company's email domains. After an employee has registered and logged into their account, they must enroll in the cPanel Certified Partner Accreditation and pass the exams. Once enough employees have earned their certification; the cPanel Certified Partner status is automatically awarded.
How can I track my employees' participation?
