1. Current Certifications

• Requirement: Ensure valid, up-to-date certification documents are uploaded for all specialties and skills you offer.

• Timing Note:  If your account is beyond the 7 day 'Trial Period', know that any updated specialty input will be reviewed before it is approved and you are allowed to utilize for booking.  You will receive a notification on acceptance or any need for further information within 72 hours in most cases.

• Find It: The Professional Info tab on your account page is where you can update both your Bio and Experience.  Think of your bio as a paragraph or two of your resume summary.  For your professional experience, necessary details are requested via the available fields.  Complete all pertinent including qualifying sub specialties.

3. Final Verification

After all five sections are complete your account will be able search and book available resort opportunities requesting your specialty skills.  After booking, our team will then review all areas of your account (experience, certifications, photo) to grant final confirmed travel approval.  (certain resorts also review details before they allow approval as well).
A fully detailed profile significantly speeds up this final verification process.
