Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: May 9, 2026
In short
TechCerted is operated by Harvest Sterling LLC (30 N Gould St, STE R, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA). We earn commissions when you purchase courses or certifications through links on our site. This never costs you extra, and it does not influence our recommendations. We recommend what we genuinely believe is best for your career.
How affiliate links work
When you click a link to an education platform on TechCerted and subsequently make a purchase, we may receive a referral commission from that platform. The price you pay is identical whether you use our link or go directly. Commission rates vary by platform and product.
Our editorial commitment
Affiliate revenue helps us keep TechCerted free and independent. However, it never dictates our editorial choices. Here is how we ensure integrity:
- We research every course, certification, and platform before recommending it.
- We recommend free resources alongside paid ones when they are genuinely good.
- We highlight weaknesses and drawbacks, not just positives.
- If a platform we have no affiliate relationship with is the best option, we still recommend it.
