Minimum Standards of Quality
Without wishing to be too restrictive, it is important to monitor and audit both the process of creating a Passport and the end result, i.e. the Passport itself. Ideally we'd like to also evaluate outcomes and the impact of the Passport.
This set of guidelines can be used to evaluate all three, and can also be used pro-actively as a checklist to guide you step by step through the process of making a Passport, following best practice.

You may download and use this checklist and audit procedures, and perhaps adapt them for your own setting. Please feel free to do so, but please do not publish anything based on these without acknowledging this author and this copyright document. Good Luck!
If you have developed different procedures, it would be good to 'share and compare' - please get in touch.
Please read my Communication Passport!
If an individual has a Communication Passport, they may need a way to indicate they would like you to read it. In communication apps and software, you could add a button with the phrase “Please read my Communication Passport,” or something similar.
You may like to have a phrase physically placed or attached where the Passport owner can access it easily and request that someone reads their Passport. The following PDFs contain symbols with the phrase “Please read my Communication Passport.” Available with PCS, Widgit or SymbolStix symbols.
