# Introducing the Services Track and Partner Hub of the Claude Partner Network Source: [https://www.anthropic.com/news/services-track-partner-hub](https://www.anthropic.com/news/services-track-partner-hub) Almost every large enterprise is moving AI into production, and many have discovered something important: a successful pilot is not the same as a system a business can run on\. The real work—and the real opportunity—is in the integration, the evaluation, and the way people's work evolves\. That's why the companies getting AI integration right are doing it with partners who have done it before\. In March, we launched the Claude Partner Network—a program, backed by a[$100 million investment](https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-partner-network)in partner training, technical support, and shared marketing, for the firms that help enterprises put Claude into production\. Since then, more than 40,000 firms have applied to join and more than 10,000 consultants have earned a Claude certification—a credential, held by an individual, that signals they've been trained to build and deploy Claude in production\. The largest professional\-services firms in the world are building their own practices around Claude — putting it into production for clients while getting it into the hands of their own people\.[Accenture](https://www.anthropic.com/news/anthropic-accenture-partnership)is training 30,000 professionals on the model\.[Cognizant](https://www.anthropic.com/news/cognizant-partnership)has rolled Claude out to roughly 350,000 associates\.[Deloitte](https://www.anthropic.com/news/deloitte-anthropic-partnership)is making it available to 470,000 people across its global network\.[KPMG](https://www.anthropic.com/news/anthropic-kpmg)is integrating Claude across a workforce of more than 276,000\.[Infosys](https://www.anthropic.com/news/anthropic-infosys)is building Claude\-powered agents for specific industries, and[PwC](https://www.anthropic.com/news/pwc-expanded-partnership)is rolling out Claude Code and Cowork starting with its US teams and expanding towards a global workforce in the hundreds of thousands\. Today we’re announcing two things that make this ecosystem easier for customers to navigate\. The**Services Track**is a tiered structure that reflects what a firm has actually built and delivered with Claude\. The**Claude Partner Hub**is a portal where partners see exactly where they stand against the program's requirements, and customers find the firms most qualified for the scope of their project\. The best partners have firsthand experience with Claude\. They use the newest models for their own work before they put it in front of a client\. This way, when they tell a customer what it takes, they’re speaking from experience\. The Services Track is built to give customers confidence in a firm’s ability to help them bring Claude into their businesses\. The Services Track has three tiers, each reflecting how deep a firm's Claude practice runs\. 1. **Select:**where partnership begins\. At least 10 active certified individuals, at least 2 joint customers deployed in production in the trailing 12 months, and at least 1 public customer story\. 2. **Preferred:**for firms with deeper Claude practices\. At least 100 active certified individuals, at least 15 deployed joint customers, and at least 3 public stories\. 3. **Global Premier:**the top tier for firms running the deepest Claude practices\. At least 1,000 active certified individuals, at least 100 deployed joint customers across three or more regions, at least 15 public customer stories, and a joint business plan with named executive sponsors\. Every firm is measured against the same requirements, whether it's a ten\-person AI\-native shop or a global consultancy\. Size doesn't lower the bar or raise the tier; a smaller firm climbs by growing its certified bench\. And because the ladder counts adoption and enablement work, firms that specialize in getting customers live on Claude can qualify early\. 1. **Certified practitioners**: How many of the firm’s people hold a current Anthropic certification and have used Claude in the past 90 days\. Certifications belong to individual people, not firms, and are earned through[Anthropic Partner Academy](https://anthropic.skilljar.com/claude-certified-architect-foundations-access-request)exams\. 2. **Customers running Claude in production**: How many customers the firm has taken live with Claude\. 3. **Public endorsements of the firm’s work**: How many customers will vouch for the firm’s work in a published customer story\. Every firm's dashboard shows the same numbers we see, and we verify standing every quarter\. Detailed requirements for each tier are published at[claude\.com/partners](http://claude.com/partners)\. ## **About the Claude Partner Hub** The Claude Partner Hub allows each partner to see its own standing against the published requirements, refreshed daily\. It’s also where customers looking for Claude expertise find the firms most qualified to help\. Every partner’s standing—their tier, certified team, customer deployments, and public references—is visible in the Hub’s public directory, so anyone evaluating partners can see what a firm has built and delivered\. Partners can connect the Partner Hub to Claude through a new[MCP connector](https://mcp.eulerapp.com/public/partner-capabilities), and from there information about the partnership becomes a conversation\. For example, ask Claude where your firm stands against the next tier, the status of a registered deal, or how many of your consultants hold an active certification, and act on the answer within Claude\. ## **What this means for partners** For firms building a Claude practice, this program is meant to reward real work and to be predictable enough to plan around\. Four things hold true for every partner: - **You always know where you stand\.**A firm can see its standing against the published requirements and exactly what the next tier requires\. This information is refreshed daily in the Claude Partner Hub\. - **Building a practice and bringing us business are two different things, and we credit them separately\.**Tier standing measures the practice a firm has built: certified practitioners, production deployments, and customers willing to vouch for them\. Sending new business to Anthropic is rewarded on its own track, through referral credit and deal protection\. A firm is never forced to choose between the two\. - **The ladder moves on a schedule you can see in advance\.**Promotions are processed twice a year, on January 1 and July 1, with an additional review on October 1, 2026, in this first year\. A firm moves down only at the annual review on December 31, only if it no longer meets its tier’s published requirements, and only after 90 days’ notice and a chance to close the gap\. The narrow exceptions are spelled out in the Program Guide\. - **The $100 million we committed in March funds**partner training, dedicated technical support, and shared marketing\. Firms that join now also get priority access to new certifications as we introduce them\. ## **What’s next** Specializations for specific industries and use cases are coming, along with rewards that grow as a partner’s deployments grow\. Getting started is free\. Firms gain Anthropic Partner Academy access, including certification exams, with tiered partners receiving discounted rates on their first attempt, and new applicants start at Registered, the program’s entry level, with a minimum commitment to 10 certified practitioners\. Partnership begins at Select\. The requirements are the same for every firm\.
