The Certification Process
Project Discovery and Agreement
We begin by collaborating with your team to confirm key details like property size and type to determine the precise scope and investment required. Once the proposal is accepted, we gather detailed floor plans and document your network configurations to ensure an efficient on-site audit.
On-Site Performance Assessment
An accredited assessor conducts a comprehensive on-site audit that analyzes the end-to-end digital experience throughout your property. Testing is performed under real-world conditions to accurately capture the true user experience.
Findings & Improvements
Passing Score: If your property achieves a passing score, the Speedtest Certified designation is issued immediately, along with your report and optional recommendations for future optimization. If Improvements Are Needed: If your property's score is below the Certified threshold, your report provides recommendations needed to meet the standard. Once the improvements are implemented by your team, certification is granted after a follow-up assessment.
Certification & Activation
Once your property meets the Speedtest Certified standard, you will receive a toolkit including the official digital seal and a physical on-property plaque to showcase your achievement across your network site and online profiles.
