Show families what is real today, not what might exist later
AutismCertified gives customer-facing businesses a clear path: pay for a tier, complete the live training tied to that path, finish review steps, and only then earn the public trust signals that match the real state of the business.
Launch-state trust note
Public claims must match live proof, current training coverage, review state, and nonprofit reality.
Starter
Current fully live baseline path with Autism 101, payment handling, dashboard state, and review flow.
Certified + Advanced
Paid higher tiers exist now, but any follow-on training or review step that is still expanding should be read as expanding, not implied complete.
Public directory
A business is only listed when approval, badge state, and visit-planning details are genuinely ready for families to review.

Frequently Asked Questions
Short answers about what is live now, what is still expanding, and what AutismCertified does and does not claim.
What is live today?
Starter is the clearest fully live path today: payment, Autism 101 baseline training, dashboard state, and review-linked progression. Certified and Advanced tiers can be purchased now, but any follow-on module or review step that is still being expanded should be read as expanding, not silently assumed complete.
How much does it cost?
AutismCertified offers Starter, Certified, and Advanced pathways, but public pages now route businesses into a request-pricing conversation instead of showing exact rates upfront. Final guidance still stays tied to the current launch-state path for each tier.
What does certification mean here?
It means a business has completed the AutismCertified path tied to its tier, its training and review state are documented in the platform, and any public badge or listing should match that real state. It does not mean AutismCertified is claiming government accreditation, medical endorsement, or universal safety across every situation.
Is AutismCertified already a 501(c)(3)?
No. AutismCertified is pursuing 501(c)(3) status. Public copy should describe the organization as pursuing nonprofit tax-exempt status, not as already granted.
Will every certified business appear in the directory?
Only when the business is genuinely ready for families to review. Public listing requires honest badge state, review completion, and practical visit-planning details, so the directory stays empty rather than publishing weak or placeholder profiles.
