Verified qualification
Studio certifications.
Nine current certificates from Google, Microsoft, HubSpot and Semrush. Each one is verified through a link at the body that issued it, not by our word.
The exams were passed by the studio founder, Evgenii Slepinin. Google and Microsoft certificates are valid for one year, after which the exam is retaken.
What this means for a client.
- The exam checks knowledge, not experience
- A certificate confirms the specialist knows the tool to the platform’s required level. Results come from the work, not the badge: a certificate is the floor, not a promise of growth.
- Setup by the platform’s own rules
- Campaigns, analytics and markup are set up the way Google or Microsoft themselves describe. That removes the usual losses: unrecorded conversions, wrong attribution, budget burnt on automated strategies with no data.
- Current topics, not last year’s
- Two of the nine certificates cover visibility in AI answers: HubSpot’s AEO Fundamentals and Semrush’s AI Search Operating System. This is the area where rules change faster than books get published.
- You can check it yourself
- Every card links to the verification page at Google, Credly, HubSpot or Semrush. It shows the name, issue date and validity, so you do not have to take our word for it.
