We have three announcements for this update.
First, Wave 4 Recognitions have been published. If you received a recognition, it will be visible here. You can use the search tool to see all the awesome things your fellow judges are doing: at home, at events, online, or in their community. The search tool will also allow you to read recognitions from the previous waves under the legacy program.
Second, we are announcing that Wave 4 of the Judge Foundry Exemplar Program is already open. If you missed the deadline for submitting a recognition last wave, go ahead and write those today! It will open TODAY and will close Tuesday January 5th at midnight PST. Judges will have the same number and types of slots as they did for the previous waves:
Level Based Slots:
L1s – 1 “any” slot per wave
L2s – 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 “any slot” per wave
L3s – 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 1 “Any” slot per wave.
L4s – 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 2 “Any” slot per wave.
L5s – 1 L1 slot per wave, 1 L2 slot per wave, 3 “Any” slot per wave.
Role Based Slots:
Regional Advocates – 3 Additional “Any” Slots
Area Communicators – 1 Additional “Any” Slot
Core Judge Foundry Project leads will receive additional “Any” slots tied to the size/scope of the respective project.
Finally, I want to give an update on the token printing. We hit some delays and our formatter/printer was unable to meet our timelines. We are still committed to making this happen, and are in talks with another token creator. The plan has shifted to printing and providing the whole years worth of tokens all at once.
Stay tuned for our next article where we highlight a few nominations we particularly liked from this last Wave
Until next time, stay awesome!
