What are the steps required for a wholesale distributor to become VAWD accredited?
• An application must be submitted to NABP along with all required documentation and the specified fee. • Wholesale distributor and designated representatives’ licenses (if applicable) are verified. • The NABP Disciplinary Clearinghouse for Wholesale Distributors is checked. • Applicable criminal and financial background checks are performed. • Policies and procedures for the operation of the wholesale distributor are reviewed. • An on-site survey is scheduled and completed. Surveys and surveyors will be managed directly through NABP. Once NABP verifies that an applicant meets the appropriate federal and state laws and VAWD program criteria and has successfully completed background and NABP Clearinghouse checks, as well as the on-site survey, accreditation will be awarded.
