1️⃣ In the progress bar, you can see that you are currently in stage 2: 2X Certification Indicative Results. The next step will require you to upload documentation supporting your answers, which will then be reviewed by the third-party verifier that you select.

2️⃣ At the center of the screen, you can see a watermarked image indicating the 2X Certification level that you could potentially achieve. These indicative results are based on your self-assessments and must be third-party verified for 2X Certification. 

3️⃣ Below the image, you'll find a message indicating whether you meet the minimum 2X Certification requirements and the potential level your organization might be eligible for.

⚠️ These results are indicative. 2X Certification is not granted until the full process is completed. There are two more stages in the process:

  • 1. Verification Stage: your organization's information will be verified and assessed, which may or may not output different results.
  • 2. Issuance of the 2X Certificate: An entity that has completed the verification process can apply for their 2X Certificate.

3) How do I read my Indicative Results?

1️⃣ First, check the Overview:

 You may be qualified to receive a 2X Certification, as long as you:

  • Meet basic standards for (ESG) Environmental, Social, and Governance
  • Meet basic standards for GBVH (Gender-Based Violence and Harassment) safeguarding
  • Meet minimum governance and accountability requirements
  • Meet at least one of the five 2X Dimensions (entrepreneurship & ownership, leadership, employment, products & services, supply chain)

2️⃣ The 2X Dimensions column at the left side of the screen is color-coded.

  • Green indicates that your entity meets the minimum requirements for that 2X dimension, as contextualized to the sector and country where your entity operates
  • Orange indicates that your entity does not meet the minimum requirements for that dimension.
  • Grey indicates that a datapoint was not provided in Self-Assessment.

3️⃣ The spiderweb chart is a visual representation of the 2X Dimensions column. The same logic applies to the dimensions column and its spiderweb chart.

👉 If your organization repeats this assessment in the future, a new line in the Spiderweb chart will be displayed, allowing you to measure your progress over time.

💡 As we develop a critical mass of 2X Self-Assessment Indicative Results and sufficient data, we'll be able to display additional Spiderweb lines for industry benchmarks.
