Smart Creator Press Certification

✓ Included with SMART All Access and Diamond VIP

Smart Creator Press is more than a membership or course plugin. It’s a complete platform for building, selling, delivering, and growing an online business, from your own WordPress site.

Courses, memberships, digital products, coaching, subscriptions, communities, events, funnels, SCP runs it all in one place. This certification makes you fluent in every major part of it.

🎓 Courses 🔄 Memberships 📦 Products ☎ Coaching
💳 Subscriptions 👥 Communities 📅 Events 🛒 Funnels

By the time you finish, you’ll know your way around SCP, what each feature does, where to find it, and how to configure it for all kinds of businesses. More than that, you’ll understand how all of it works together to build something that actually sells.

What you’ll gain
🚀
Get more out of Smart Creator Press
It’s easy to only scratch the surface of what SCP can do. You’ll find features you didn’t know existed, learn when to use them, and see how they work together to automate your business and open up new growth.
💡
Build with confidence
You’ll stop second-guessing your setup. You’ll know where the settings are, what they do, and how to configure SCP for different business models.
💼
Offer it as a service and earn recurring income
Freelancer, consultant, or agency owner? Certification gives you the skills to build SCP sites for clients, course creation, membership setup, stores, checkout, community, automations. And because the build is just the start, you keep earning through ongoing work: new products, new courses, managing memberships, improving conversions.
🏅
Earn the Certified SCP Expert credential
Finish the course, pass the quizzes and exercises, and complete the final project. You get an official certificate, a badge for your website, and a listing in our Certified Expert Directory so clients can find you.

What being certified gets you

This isn’t just a line on your resume. It’s proof you can build a real business on SCP, and it comes with things you can put to work the day you finish.

🏅 Your certificate
A personalized PDF with your name and date. Print it, attach it to proposals, or share it on social. You download it the moment your work is verified.
🎖️ Your badge
Add it to your website, your homepage footer, your email signature, your posts, anywhere prospects might land and size you up.
📇 Get found by clients
We list you in two places people go looking for help:
•A new SCP Certified section on smartcreatorpress.com, where people looking for someone to build their site find you and reach out.
•Our community member directory, listed as an SCP Certified Expert.
Both point clients back to you.
💼 An agency license at a discount
Certified Experts can grab an SCP agency license at a lower price. That’s the license you use to build sites for clients, so every build you take on costs you less.

Certified

Set aside 4 to 6 weeks. Live sessions run throughout, with replays if you can’t make them. You can move faster, just don’t skip the build steps.

What it takes to earn it

Three things need to be true before you’re certified:

1. Complete every action item

Each lesson ends with at least one action item, things you actually DO, not just read about, to prove you can use SCP in practice. Don’t mark a lesson done until it’s finished. Skipping them is the fastest way to get stuck on a real build later.

2. Watch the sessions, live or replay

Live sessions run weekly during the cohort. Attend live if you can, the Q&A is where the real learning happens. Can’t make it? Replays go up within 24 hours. Watch every session either way.

3. Pass the quizzes

Most modules have a short quiz to confirm you got it. Unlimited retries, no penalty for wrong answers, and an explanation on every question. It’s not there to trip you up, it’s there to make sure you’re solid.

⭐ ONE MORE THING TO STAY ELIGIBLE
Along with the lessons, quizzes, and action items, you’ll keep an active Diamond or Smart All Access membership. That’s what keeps your yearly training current as SCP grows, so your skills, and your directory listing, stay up to date.
