The program is divided into two components, with multiple levels appropriate for your organization.

Organizations of any sector or size may apply by submission of a Full Application that is responsive to all elements of the criteria. The requirements for application are outlined in a special publication. It can be downloaded from this site along with the Criteria.

This program has an annual cycle with specific deadlines. Applicants receive a site visit, feedback report from the team of examiners and recognition from a panel of judges.
