WebTech Certified
Standards-based accreditation for web development companies, agencies, and freelance practices.
What This Seal Certifies
WebTech Certified validates that a web development business — an agency, a freelancer, or an in-house team — follows robust practices in cybersecurity, SEO methodology, and digital accessibility, built on the principles of three internationally recognized standards:
- ISO 25010 — systems and software quality models, covering performance, maintainability, and usability.
- ISO 27001 — information security management, covering how client and user data is protected across projects.
- WCAG — Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, ensuring websites are usable by people with disabilities.
Rather than certifying a single website, WebTech Certified evaluates how a business operates across its entire portfolio of client work — making it a durable credential that stays relevant project after project, not just for one deliverable.
Who Should Apply
Web development agencies, freelance developers, digital marketing and SEO firms, and any business whose core deliverable is building or maintaining websites for clients and wants independent, standards-based validation of its practices. This credential is particularly valuable when pitching enterprise clients, government contracts, or partners who need assurance that security and accessibility practices are genuinely in place — not just claimed in a sales pitch.
WebTech Certified accredits your business and its practices. If you're looking to certify a specific application instead, see the AppAdvantage Seal, which evaluates the product rather than the company behind it.

Professional and vocational, not academic. ABIA certifications and diplomas are Professional and Vocational Qualifications that validate workforce competency and technical skills. They are non-academic in nature and are not intended to replace, substitute, or equate to university degrees. Because ABIA operates as an independent, non-governmental standard-setting body for professional and vocational credentials — not as a degree-granting academic institution — ABIA does not require accreditation from another accrediting body to certify at this level.
