The Gorgias Academy is a learning center for those wishing to become support experts. It contains free courses and certifications that can be taken by anyone with a Gorgias account.

As a new initiative our current course options are limited, however we are working hard to launch new courses regularly! If there is a course you'd like to see in Gorgias Academy please make a suggestion using the tab on the right.


Certification

Certifications are courses that also contain knowledge check questions. Once you have completed a certification course our team will individually grade your answers. If you have passed with a mark of 80% or more you will be issued with a digital certificate of competency.

This is sent by email and can be posted directly to LinkedIn or printed and included in your CV.
