How verification works

1. Send us your details

Use the form below to list your certifications and their numbers, such as CPP, PSP, PCI or CSC. Add any state licenses that apply to your work. Then give us one professional reference who knows your consulting work, such as a past client.

2. We review them by hand

The site admin checks your credential numbers against the issuing body where that is possible, and contacts your reference. We may ask you for more information, like a copy of a certificate.

3. Your badge goes live

Once approved, your profile shows the Verified badge and the date it was verified. Verified listings appear above unverified listings in search results.

What Verified means, and what it does not

Verified means we confirmed your stated credentials and heard back from a reference at the date shown. It is not a rating of your work, and it is not an endorsement. We tell buyers this openly, and we encourage them to ask their own questions before hiring.

If a credential lapses or we learn that information was not accurate, we may remove the badge.

Before you apply

• Make sure your listing is approved and your profile is filled in.
• Have your certification numbers and expiration dates ready.
• Let your reference know we may contact them, so they watch for our message.
