Frequently asked questions

What a prospective client needs to know.

How long does the assessment take?

GCCMI issues the assessment decision within five working days after receiving a complete SCAF and completing one validation interview. The digital certificate follows completion of the certification formalities; framed certificates ship separately.

When is the US$5,000 fee payable?

Only after GCCMI confirms that the certification requirements have been met. No assessment fee is charged upfront, and payment does not influence the result.

What happens if the requirements are not met?

No fee is charged and no certificate or assessment report is issued. The applicant may submit a new application at a later stage.

Is documentation required?

No documentation or sample evidence is requested as part of the standard process. GCCMI uses the completed declaration and one 30-minute interview to test consistency and assign the final score.

What score is required?

Certification requires at least 70% overall and 60% in each capability. Up to eight statements may be proposed as N/A; each requires justification and GCCMI approval.
