Engagement-level transparency
Know who is doing the work before you rely on it.
The professional responsible for a report should be identified before work begins. Each engagement should state assigned roles, relevant credential issuers and jurisdictions, review responsibility, intended use and applicable standards.
WorthPrism does not imply that every credential holder reviews every report, or that a designation by itself makes a work product suitable for every purpose.
Named, not implied
You are told who is accountable for your report before work begins.
We do not publish a marketing roster and invite you to assume someone on it will do your work. The professional responsible for your engagement, the credential relied upon, the issuing body and the reviewer are named in your engagement letter, in writing, before the first document changes hands.
