Application for Institutions

Navigating through the application process for membership can seem intricate at first glance, but we’ve streamlined it to ensure clarity and ease for all our potential members. Here’s a concise breakdown of the steps you’ll take, from initial form submission to finalizing your membership tier. Each phase is designed to ensure we understand your needs and can provide the best support possible as you join our community. In general the process might take from 5 to 20 business days.

Application Process Overview:

1. Form Submission: Complete the application form.
2. Account Creation: Once submitted, we’ll set up and grant you access to a personal account on our website and designate you as an “Applicant”.
3. Compliance Checklist Submission: After you submit the application form, you will receive an email confirmation with further instructions, as well as a web link to a compliance checklist. This checklist helps us evaluate your current state and identify any non-conformities. Some fields may not apply to you, or you might not currently meet some of our criteria. Don’t worry; we’ll guide you in making the necessary improvements.
4. Evaluation: Our assessors will review your compliance checklist. Any clarifications or further actions needed will be communicated via notes in your personal account.
5. Tier Recommendation: Based on our evaluation, we’ll suggest a membership tier. If you aspire for a higher tier, we’ll provide guidance on corrective actions, process enhancements, and evidence requirements.
6. Finalizing Membership: After addressing the recommendations, you’ll be presented with your desired membership tier, available for purchase in our store.
