Any institution interested in being certified must make a written request for formal inclusion in the TedQual Certification System by attaching the duly completed pre-registration form. This procedure is not a mere bureaucratic formality, but rather, it makes it possible to detect in the initial phase any possible incompatibility or problem that may affect the certification process. The UNWTO.Themis Foundation will study the request and decide within a maximum of 7 days whether or not to accept it.
