Announcements<br>Introducing the Services Track and Partner Hub of the Claude Partner Network<br>Jun 3, 2026

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.<br>In March, we launched the Claude Partner Network—a program, backed by a $100 million investment 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.<br>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 is training 30,000 professionals on the model. Cognizant has rolled Claude out to roughly 350,000 associates. Deloitte is making it available to 470,000 people across its global network. KPMG is integrating Claude across a workforce of more than 276,000. Infosys is building Claude-powered agents for specific industries, and PwC is rolling out Claude Code and Cowork starting with its US teams and expanding towards a global workforce in the hundreds of thousands.<br>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.<br>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.<br>About the Services Track<br>The Services Track has three tiers, each reflecting how deep a firm's Claude practice runs.<br>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.<br>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.<br>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.<br>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..<br>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 exams.<br>Customers running Claude in production : How many customers the firm has taken live with Claude.<br>Public endorsements of the firm’s work : How many customers will vouch for the firm’s work in a published customer story.<br>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.<br>About the Claude Partner Hub<br>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.<br>Partners can connect the Partner Hub to Claude through a new MCP connector, 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,...
