During Preliminary Review, which outcome occurs?

• A. The project administrator receives a preliminary rating and requests for additional information per credit.
• B. The project administrator receives a preliminary rating and requests for final certification.
• C. No information is requested.
• D. Final certification is issued after Preliminary Review.

Answer: (A)

During Preliminary Review, the project is given an early assessment of the submitted documentation, resulting in a preliminary rating and a set of requests for information for the credits that need more detail. This helps the project team understand what is currently supported and what additional documentation or clarifications are needed before moving toward certification. Final certification is not issued at this stage, and the review typically includes information requests rather than a completed certification.
