In the next step you will be asked to upload documents that will support your application for certification. We strongly recommend that you review the critical information below before proceeding.
Below, you will find a list of supporting documentation required for your application. Please ensure that all required documents are accessible, and legible in digital format. Your certification consultant will need easy access to these documents prior to and during your certification call.
If all required documents are not available in accessible, legible digital format prior to the certification call, you will not be able to proceed until this issue is rectified.
If there are missing documents, incomplete information, or discrepancies in documents to support ownership, operation, and control, recommendation for certification will be delayed. Additional fees for follow-up and reassessment of additional or revised documents may be incurred.
Company governance structures can be complicated. Particularly when there are multiple shareholders involved. It is highly recommended that you review any and all governance documents for your company for restrictions on control of the business by the LGBTQ identifying owner. (Tip: look out for works like “majority”, “consent”, or “unanimous”). As a reminder, to be certified with CCQC, there can be no restriction on control by the LGBTQ identifying owner.
The documents submitted during this process are intended to create a snapshot of your business’ current structure. Any changes to your business (incorporation, name changes, rebranding, etc.) should occur before or after you are certified. It is not recommended that the certification process be initiated while changes to your organization are underway as it can complicate your application.
