Get answers to the most common questions about our independent course certification process, audit criteria, and what to expect from your report and badge.
ClearMark Audit is an independent review of your course and sales page across 12 trust domains from promise clarity and proof, to ethics and learning design. Within 48 hours, you receive:
The badge is our independent trustmark. It signals that your course has been reviewed for authenticity, clarity, and quality.
Your badge is valid for 12 months. After that, you can re-audit to renew.
Then you get something even more valuable: a clear roadmap to improve. Our audit pinpoints where trust breaks down, so you know exactly what to fix. Many creators book a re-audit after making changes and climb from Bronze to Silver, or Silver to Gold.
No, we don’t rewrite your entire course or page. We give you practical, copy-paste suggestions and a prioritized list of improvements. If you need implementation help, we offer optional add-ons (like a one-day implementation sprint).
We’re independent and objective. A coach may advise you, but ClearMark gives you an official badge and a scoring system your audience can trust. Think of it as the “Fair Trade” or “Trustpilot” of online learning, but focused on courses.
When you see a ClearMark badge on a course, you know it’s been reviewed for:
In short: the badge means it’s not just hype, it’s been independently checked.
No. Your results depend on your own effort and context. What ClearMark guarantees is that the course you invest in has been vetted for clarity, transparency, and quality.
We’re building a public directory of all certified courses. Each listing will show the badge level, audit date, and renewal status, so you know which courses are up-to-date.
No. Badges are earned, not bought. A creator pays for the audit, but if their course doesn’t meet the standards, they won’t get a Gold or even Silver badge. That’s how we keep the trust real.
