Ever wonder why some NASMM companies are at the top of the list on the state/province pages of the Find A Senior Move Manager page of the website? And their company name begins with an S or a T? It’s because they hold NASMM’s A+ Accreditation.

The NASMM A+ Accreditation Program recognizes Move Management companies for achieving a level of competency in Senior Move Management through demonstrated best practices in Senior Move Management client services and business management.

Quite simply, NASMM A+ Accreditation represents the highest level of professional achievement that can be awarded to a Senior Move Management company.

Perhaps you’ve been in business a few years and thinking about applying for this gold standard credential. But you’re not sure how to begin. Or maybe you’re just starting out and hoping to achieve Accredited status in a few years. Either way, you’re the target audience for this webinar.

This webinar will explore the WHY? of Accreditation: What are the benefits of being an Accredited company and how can you successfully use Accreditation to market your business?

Mostly, it will also cover the HOW? of Accreditation: What documents and policies do you need to prepare an Accreditation application? What does the application and review process look like? We’ll provide practical tools and handouts to help you create policies and procedures if you don’t already have a method! We’ll also provide an organizational structure that addresses all the required components to sail through the accreditation review process.

Objectives:

• Learn how Accreditation will benefit your business
• Hear from Accredited companies who are using Accreditation in their marketing
• Understand Front Door Training, SMM-C, and Accreditation
• Learn About the Accreditation Review Process
• Understand the differences between processes, policies, and procedures and why you need them
• Walk through the Accreditation Standards
• Take away templates to jump start your NASMM A+ Accreditation application
