As a Diversity VC member, once you've reached 100% in a level, it's time to get certified!
Diversity VC will need to review some supporting evidence, please send the documents listed below to members@diversity.vc with the subject line [Certification Review] and they'll be in touch to arrange your certification call.
Documents for Level 1+ certification
These are some of the documents required to reach 100% in Level 1, please include them as evidence when going for certification (screenshots and/or PDF exports are great):
Accessibility policy including how to get accommodations
Code of conduct
Guidance given to employees on what to do if discrimination or harassment occurs
Anonymous complaint instructions for employees
Onboarding sample such as an internal process doc or employee welcome pack
Hiring process/instructions so people running hiring apply a consistent approach
Rating scale criteria example for deal flow assessment
Code of conduct & anti-harassment template provided to portfolio companies
These policies and processes do need to be written down to count. Informal, undocumented processes widen the gap between the traditional majority and everyone else which is harmful to equality and inclusion even when it's well-intentioned.
