Step 1: Determine whether your chamber is ready to apply
If you have not already done so, please take a few minutes to take the Accreditation Self-Analysis Survey to find out if your chamber meets the minimum requirements necessary to apply for Accreditation.
Step 2: Let us know you plan to apply for Accreditation
You must submit your "Intent to Apply" at least one month prior to submitting the application.
However, it is strongly recommend that you submit your intent as you first begin to work on the application. Filling out an intent to apply form will allow the chamber to receive communications from the Accreditation staff regarding program updates.
