About Ladder Awards

Molly Mallone

From the Goldenvale Facebook Group

"1st and 2nd and orders are novice level
3rd and 4th orders are apprentice level
5th and 6th orders are intermediate/journeyman
7th and 8th orders are expert
9th and 10th orders are mastery
and then "master" is a culmination: a super craft, or a festival, or warlord, or whatever."

Brother Fredrik

"I look at it in a very similar way to Molly Mallone:
1-2 is saying to the recipient "You are off to a good start!"
3-4 is saying to the recipient "Yes! You've got the right idea"
5-6 is saying to the recipient "Wow, you have grown beyond the basics"
7-8 is saying to the recipient "OMG, you do such awesome work"
9-10 is saying to the recipient "You have it down. Teach!"
and Masterhood is saying: "You are among the elite. Share your knowledge""
