TL;DR
Becoming a certified 6clicks partner gives MSPs access to training, enablement resources, and a recognized credential that demonstrates GRC delivery capability to clients and prospects.
What does 6clicks partner certification mean?
The 6clicks Partner Program includes a certification pathway that validates an MSP's ability to deploy, configure, and deliver GRC (governance, risk and compliance) services using the 6clicks platform. Certification signals to clients that the MSP has been trained and assessed by 6clicks to deliver to a consistent standard.
For MSPs, certification provides:
- Credibility — a recognized credential to include in proposals and client-facing materials
- Differentiation — positioning the MSP as a verified 6clicks delivery partner
- Access — priority support, partner resources, and co-marketing opportunities
- Confidence — the training ensures MSP teams can use the platform effectively from day one
What the certification pathway involves
The 6clicks partner certification program is designed to be practical and accessible. It typically includes:
- Platform training — self-paced modules covering core 6clicks capabilities: assessments, risk registers, policy management, reporting, and the Hub & Spoke model
- Framework knowledge — understanding key GRC frameworks supported by 6clicks (ISO 27001, Essential Eight, NIST CSF, SOC 2, and others)
- Delivery methodology — how to structure and run GRC engagements using 6clicks, from initial scoping to ongoing managed services
- Assessment — a practical component that tests the partner's ability to configure and deliver an engagement
Who should get certified?
Certification is relevant for MSP team members who will be directly involved in delivering GRC services: security consultants, vCISOs, compliance analysts, and account managers who oversee GRC engagements. MSPs can certify multiple team members to ensure consistent delivery capability.
The commercial benefit of certification
Certified 6clicks partners are listed in the partner directory and benefit from co-marketing support, including joint content, campaign assets, and referral opportunities. Certification also provides a strong foundation for winning new clients: prospects can verify the MSP's credentials directly.
