Hi there, anonymous6.
Yes, your profile will be published before you recertify your QBO ProAdvisor examination. To maintain your certification, you will complete a shorter recertification exam each year based on your level of certification. This exam focuses on the changes in QuickBooks Online since the last time you took the recertification.
You must have an active ProAdvisor member account and be certified in one of the three latest version years of QBO Certification. This maintains your Certified Gold Level status.
Please check this article on how ProAdvisor Certification works and different information about this Certification program: Frequently Asked Questions about ProAdvisor Certification.
You can always download, print badges, and certificates after completing a course. This lets you show off your expertise and promote your services. For more information, check out this article: Access your certification history.
Please let me know if you have other questions related with QuickBooks.
