Re-apply six to nine months prior to your expiration.

The Workroom portion of the HQAA process is thought of as a “shared” policy and
procedure manual. When uploading all required documents, HQAA then has a record
of your methods to meet the standards ‘on paper’. These are the records that your
surveyor reviewed prior to the on-site visit, laying a foundation for current
accreditation awards.
The re-application process begins when you renew here. Even if it is not your first
time, you will see a page asking if the intent is to re-apply. The HQAA ID# is needed
to begin an efficient process of completing the application. All current information
about your company will be available to edit and update, saving you time in completing
a whole new application.
Once in your Workroom, a coach will continue to be assigned as your personal resource.
The main objective will be to review all documents on file, update and upload those
that have changed, and keep those documents on file that have not. YOU are in control
of keeping or updating the documents. Simple. Efficient. Personal.
It is our recommendation to re-apply with HQAA 6-9 months prior to the expiration of
your accreditation. The expectation is to leave a 4 month window from the point of
workroom completion to survey, post-survey activity and then accreditation. Consideration
needs to be given to how much time can be dedicated to completion of the Workroom
activity. HQAA does send letters via USPS as courtesy reminders to give consideration to
your time frames. Expiration dates are noted and documented by the NSC; do not risk
extending your work past your date.
