2024 CERTIFICATION APPLICATION CYCLE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sustainable Jersey for Schools operates on a once a year application cycle, with
three submission dates. See the chart below for details on the structure and
timing of the application cycle. To maximize the potential for feedback and
ultimately achieve certification, it is highly recommended to submit an
application with documentation for at least two rounds of review. Applicants who
wait until the final deadline to submit an initial application will have to wait
until the next year's certification cycle to address any issues identified
during the review process.

Request a help session with our staff to make progress on your certification
application. Someone from our staff will reach out to finalize a time for a Zoom
meeting or phone call.
