FAQs > Certification Process > How does the verification process work?
Once your application has been submitted, the Montgomery County Green Business Certification Program staff will contact you to arrange a convenient time for an on-site verification visit. The on-site visit includes a visual review of your facility and a discussion with your staff involved in this effort. You are encouraged to think about what you would want to show the Program staff to demonstrate particular checklist item accomplishments. Documentation varies by action, but could include things like office products and signage, reports, correspondence, etc. While verification is central to ensuring the integrity of the Montgomery County Green Business Certification Program, the onsite visit is designed to be collegial and helpful. The visit should not take long, although this is dependent upon the size and complexity of your organization.
