I can’t find or complete the verification form.
The verification form only becomes available after the first Lead Forward webinar of your cohort has begun. You can confirm the date of that first session in the Zoom registration dropdown list (where all session times are shown).
If the form should be available but doesn’t load:
- Clear your cache.
- Try an incognito window.
- Switch devices or network.
If it still doesn’t work, please submit your question through the Contact Us button. Our team will support you within 2–3 working days.

I can’t retake the verification form.
Reopen the verification form module and ensure you’re not on the review page.
- If you don’t see the “Retake” button, try resizing your screen (75% Zoom)
