Great Place to Play™ is the independent certification authority that verifies athlete experience, development quality, and program culture — giving recruits, transfers, and partners the signal they need to make confident decisions.
Three certification tiers based solely on verified athlete survey data, longitudinal tracking, and independent audit findings. No pay-to-play. No bias.
The GPTP Trust Index™ synthesizes athlete-reported experience across eight independently weighted dimensions, scored by verified surveys, behavioral indicators, and third-party audit findings. No single metric can game the system.
Seven integrated product lines serve programs, athletes, families, NIL collectives, insurers, and media — each compounding platform value.
Every stakeholder in college athletics has something to lose. Certification converts existential anxiety into platform dependency — and platform value into compounding dominance.
Three phases of deliberate category creation — from proof-of-concept to de facto NCAA compliance standard and eventual IPO or strategic acquisition at $500M–$2B valuation.
We're accepting 15 flagship programs across power conferences for our inaugural certification cohort. Pilot partners receive locked-in pricing, co-development influence, and first-mover certification advantage.
