Today we’re excited to announce that Axelerant has been selected as the Official Mautic Certification Provider after a rigorous RFP process. This landmark initiative will establish the first-ever professional certification framework for Mautic, marking the beginning of an exciting journey to further professionalize the Mautic ecosystem and support agencies, freelancers, and organizations worldwide that implement Mautic.

Through this certification program, we aim to strengthen the global Mautic ecosystem, support talent development, and ensure that businesses can confidently identify qualified practitioners. Whether you’re a developer, integrator, or digital marketer, the Mautic certification program will enable you to demonstrate your skills and be recognized worldwide as a Mautic qualified professional..

Why this matters

As Mautic continues to grow as the world’s leading open source marketing automation platform, organizations increasingly rely on skilled professionals to customize, integrate, and extend Mautic to meet unique marketing needs. Until now, there has been no standardized way to validate skills or help businesses hire qualified Mautic talent.

Introducing the official Mautic certification provider

As the official certification provider, Axelerant is leading the development and global rollout of a robust, credible certification program designed to elevate professional standards. Their focus areas include:

  • Comprehensive syllabus design: We’re creating certification tracks tailored to the roles that matter most in the Mautic ecosystem: Developer, Integrator, and Marketer. Each syllabus is being developed to reflect both core knowledge and practical application with an aim to provide a credible, role-specific benchmark for validating Mautic proficiency.
  • Proctored exams: Candidates will take exams through a secure, globally accessible, proctored platform to ensure fair testing conditions. This means individuals can get certified with confidence that the process upholds industry-standard verification, whether they’re in Berlin, Bangalore, or Buenos Aires.
  • Career-advancing credentials: On passing the certification, individuals will receive verifiable digital badges and certificates that can be showcased on professional platforms like LinkedIn or shared with employers and clients. These credentials will serve as a trusted signal of Mautic expertise in hiring, consulting, and project bidding scenarios.

What you can expect

  • Up-to-date content: Certification materials and assessments will be tightly aligned with the most recent stable version of Mautic. As the platform evolves, so too will the exams, ensuring relevance and longevity.
  • Scenario-based assessment: The exams will include real-world use cases and problem-solving scenarios designed to evaluate not just theoretical knowledge but practical skill and judgment. This approach makes the certification more meaningful for both professionals and the organizations hiring them.
  • Preparation resources: We’ll be providing candidates with structured guidance, including an exam blueprint that outlines competencies and topic weightage. Sample questions and prep recommendations will also be offered to help candidates assess their readiness and focus their learning.

The certification program is scheduled to launch within the next four months. We’re working diligently to ensure high-quality content, secure administration, and community-driven feedback loops from day one.

We need your expertise

We’re building this with the community, for the community. Whether you’re a developer, implementer, or marketer, your experience is invaluable. We’re currently inviting volunteers in the following roles:

  • Technical reviewers: If you’ve implemented Mautic in real-world scenarios, customized plugins, managed integrations, built campaigns, or optimized contact segmentation, your input can ensure our materials reflect authentic use cases and technical precision. Reviewers will help validate that questions are fair, technically accurate, and free of ambiguity.
  • Community advocates: You’ll play a key role in driving awareness about the certification, encouraging adoption, and relaying feedback from your networks. Whether through webinars, user groups, or one-on-one outreach, advocates will be instrumental in making this certification a trusted standard across global Mautic communities.

Whether you’re an experienced Mautic developer/integrator/marketer, agency leader, or passionate community member, your input can shape a certification program that benefits everyone.
