As you all probably know by now, Notion is a super versatile all-in-one workspace tool, that keeps gaining popularity among businesses and scale-ups for its ability to streamline workflows, boost team productivity, and facilitate seamless organisation of company processes. While the UX of the platform is super user friendly and it is relatively easy to get started with the platform, Notion can really impact your company’s processes and save your team a substantial amount of hours only when it reaches a level of sophistication beyond the typical user's reach. This is where the Notion certification becomes invaluable.

But, wait a minute…

How does the Notion certification process work and why is it so important?

The Notion Certified Consultant: An Elite Expert

Notion Certified Consultancy Agencies are a select group of businesses whose members, at least one of them, have achieved the highest level of recognition within the Notion ecosystem and have have officially become a Notion Certified Consultant. These agencies, just like us, have a track record of helping businesses make the most of Notion's features which has been tested by Notion itself. As a matter of fact, what sets them apart from any other business that calls itself “Notion Consultant”, is the fact itself that Notion has provided their official stamp of approval. In fact, the certification that a Notion Certified Agency receives comes directly from Notion Inc., the very company that develops the platform.

To earn the coveted title of "Notion Certified Consultant," individuals must undergo a rigorous certification process. This process includes:

  1. The Application: Notion requires candidates to provide evidence of their previous consultancy work and advocacy for Notion in public. This step ensures that applicants have practical experience with the tool and have committed themselves to supporting the online community.
  2. The Exam: A multiple-choice examination tests candidates on their overall knowledge of Notion. The questions cover various features and functions, ensuring that certified consultants have a comprehensive understanding of the tool's capabilities.
  3. The Practical: To prove their skills, applicants are given a mock client brief and asked to build a solution within Notion. They must also provide explanations of how they accomplished the task.

Notion Certified Consultancy Agencies are not numerous; in fact, only a limited number of individuals have successfully navigated this certification process. At the time of writing, there are just around 60 Notion Certified Consultants operating in more than twenty countries worldwide.
