State who holds it, the exact designation, and the source a visitor can check. Review company-wide wording separately from a named professional's qualification. NABCEP lists board certifications, associate credentials, and company accreditation as separate programs. Its site provides corresponding professional directories and program links. [NABCEP certification information, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.nabcep.org/certifications/). Use this checklist to prepare your own credential section. It verifies no particular business or person and determines no licensing requirement. ## Collect the words as well as the badges Inventory the homepage, team biographies, installation pages, footer, and downloadable material. Record the exact wording beside each mark or logo. Ask the business owner which person or entity the statement describes. Keep a named employee, outside specialist, and the installation company separate in the evidence sheet. If a team member has left, ask the owner to review the public claim before retaining it. An old biography should not imply an ongoing role your records cannot confirm. ## Give each claim a source and holder Use this proposed worksheet: | Claim field | Material to gather | | --- | --- | | Public wording | Exact sentence currently shown or proposed | | Holder | Person or company identified in the issuer record | | Designation | Exact program and status wording | | Evidence | Current public issuer destination or confirmation | | Role | Owner-approved relationship to the offered work | | Asset use | Approved badge and issuer use instructions | | Maintenance | Reviewer and trigger for another check | Have the holder supply the correct public verification route. Open it without a staff login and compare the identity with the page. Keep an unavailable or uncertain record unresolved. Do not replace a failed check with an image of an old certificate. Ask the issuer how the credential should be verified before publishing the claim. ## Keep professional designations and local licenses distinct Give any government license its own evidence row. Require the exact licensing authority, holder, jurisdiction, and current source before adding a claim. Do not infer one from another credential. The FTC recommends checking solar companies with state contractors licensing boards and asking about requirements in the relevant state, county, and city. [FTC installer research guidance, checked 2026.10.23](https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/solar-power-your-home). This guide supplies no national rule that one certification permits every installation. Leave local requirements to the correct authority and qualified reviewer. Keep insurance and manufacturer-authorized status separate too. Require their own supporting records rather than treating a professional designation as proof of either. ## Write the relationship in ordinary language Name the holder and the work they perform for your business. Have the owner approve that role before it becomes a public claim. Review phrases such as “our certified team” against the actual evidence. If the record supports one named person, describe that person precisely. Do not expand the claim to every installer. Avoid turning credentials into a promised approval, system output, or customer saving. The credential section should explain the supported qualification. Project-specific judgments belong in the relevant assessment and agreement. ## Test the published evidence route Compare the final text with the worksheet. Check that the badge opens the intended public record and that its text remains readable without the image. Repeat the review for mobile sections and downloads. Record the final wording, destination, and check date. Name who updates them after a role or credential change. The [solar installation overview](/for/solar-installation) connects public claims with current office records. Use that distinction when briefing your website provider.
