1. Establish your school district, or an individual school within your district, as a Zone Academy by qualifying.

2. Once the Zone Academy is established, you need to determine your project's scope and details.

3. Once the size and scope of your project is determined, a public/private partnership needs to be created to better facilitate education in
    the Zone Academy. "QZABs are issued in support 
   of Qualified Zone Academies, schools (or programs within a school) that enter into partnerships with local businesses to  enhance the 
   academic curriculum, increase graduation and employment rates, and better prepare students for the rigors of  college and the workforce
    under a plan approved by the local school system." (US DOE)

4. The partnership must locate a "Qualified Contributor" to supply a 10% matching grant.

5. With 1-3 completed, your state department of education should be notified and a request for allocation submitted.

6. After your QZAB allocation has been approved, you must locate a "Qualified Buyer" who is willing to take your debt and a tax credit 
   instead of an interest check. Issue the QZAB to your qualified buyer.
