Some feedback I just saw from an aspiring L2 is that "yeah and through your account it gives you absolutely no information on how to begin moving up levels, doesn't tell me how to test or anything."

Could we add some direction - as a banner, or a link on the user's profile, or maybe an Advancement link in the left nav menu - that points the user toward the judgefoundry.org or IJP article on how to advance to the next level?

Thanks for the feedback, Andrew!

I'm going to move this to Judge Technology, since it's more of a JudgeApps feature request than something for just Judge Foundry, and we try to keep the two separate. I'll also just mention that there are almost a dozen judge programs out there right now, so even if something works for Judge Foundry and IJP, it might not work for members of UK Magic Officials or Magic Judges South Africa, for example.

In the meantime, it sounds like your candidate asked a mentor which… is the first step to advancing to Level Two! I'll leave it to JA staff (Bearz and Dan) to review this further.
