What is Kultivia Certified?

The only workplace culture certification backed entirely by verified employee data — not self-reported surveys or paid applications.

What it means

Kultivia Certified is awarded to companies whose department culture scores meet or exceed our quality thresholds across all seven dimensions, based on a minimum number of verified employee submissions. It cannot be purchased. It cannot be requested. It can only be earned through genuine employee experience.

How certification is reviewed

Certification status is reviewed automatically every quarter based on the most recent 12 months of verified submission data. Companies can gain or lose certification based on how their scores change over time. This ensures the badge always reflects current employee experience, not historical performance.

How to display your badge

Certified companies receive a digital badge they can display on their careers page, LinkedIn company page, and job postings. The badge links directly to your Kultivia profile so candidates can verify it is genuine.

For employers

If your company is a Kultivia subscriber you can track your progress toward certification in your analytics dashboard. We show you exactly which dimensions need improvement and by how much. The path to certification is transparent — there are no hidden requirements.
