Endorsement Process (Recognized, Leader, Champion)
The C3 Craft Training Endorsement Program follows a process that allows a company to self- assess their current state and then apply for endorsement at the desired level by submitting an application and undergoing a thorough audit of the training program by C3 People Development Staff.
Companies which self assess at the Recognized, Leader, or Champion ​level are given 60 days to prepare for the Craft Training Endorsement Review. During the Endorsement Review, companies will discuss and provide documentation which demonstrates that the company is actively engaging in Craft Training Best Practices with its craftsmen.
