How to verify a HighLevel Certified Admin before you hire

To verify a HighLevel Certified Admin, get the person's full name from the agency, then look them up in HighLevel's Certified Admin Directory, reached from HighLevel's partner site at partners.gohighlevel.com. HighLevel certifies people who pass its live proctored exam, not agencies, so check the person who will work on your account.

Steps to verify a Certified Admin

  1. Ask who holds the credential. Get the full name of the certified person, not just "our team is certified".
  2. Open HighLevel's partner site at partners.gohighlevel.com and use its "Work with a Partner" option to reach the directory.
  3. Search for the person's name and check that the listing matches the person and the company you are talking to.
  4. Ask for the direct listing link or the certificate if you cannot find them. A certified person can share it.
  5. Confirm the person works on your build. A certified founder who never touches your account adds less than it sounds.

What we saw on partners.gohighlevel.com

Checked November 2, 2026. The page loads as "The HighLevel Partner Program". It has two main buttons, "Become a Partner" and "Work with a Partner", and describes three partner types: Experts (individuals who implement the work themselves), Solutions Providers (teams with more capacity) and SaaSpreneurs (white-labelers serving a niche). It sets out a four-step roadmap for partners: get trained, get tested, get listed, receive leads.

A section on the HighLevel Certified Admin program offers admin training and a certificate and describes it as free of charge. The directory itself opens from the "Work with a Partner" button, which runs in the browser, so the list of names is not visible in the page source.

Note on price: HighLevel's pricing page, checked the same day, lists a "HighLevel Certification Program" add-on at $97 a month, while the partner page calls the Certified Admin training and certificate free of charge. If you are pursuing the credential yourself, confirm with HighLevel which applies.

HighLevel's blog said on December 29, 2025 that admins are featured in the public, searchable directory once they pass the live proctored exam, and that the directory had 456 admins in November 2025.

Questions to ask a provider that says it is certified

  1. Which person on your team is a HighLevel Certified Admin, and can you send the directory link?
  2. Will that person build or review my account?
  3. If "certified" refers to something else, who issued it: HighLevel, another software company or a course?
  4. Can I see a case study for an account like mine?

Frequently asked questions

Where can I find HighLevel Certified Admins?

HighLevel lists Certified Admins in a public, searchable directory linked from its partner site, partners.gohighlevel.com. HighLevel said there were 456 admins in the directory in November 2025.

Can an agency be HighLevel certified?

The Certified Admin credential is held by a person who passed HighLevel's live proctored exam. An agency can employ certified admins, so ask which person holds it and whether that person works on your account.

What does a HighLevel Certified Admin know?

HighLevel describes its admin training as covering the platform in depth: automations, pipelines, snapshots and workflows. Certification shows a person passed the exam, not that they have built accounts like yours.

What if the agency will not name the certified person?

Treat the claim as unverified. A provider with a real Certified Admin on the team can give you the person's full name or a direct link to the directory listing.
