Adhere to the code of conduct and ethics A ceremony such as the annual camp or gala dinner, or some other national event or occasion will be used to acknowledge and celebrate those chapters that are moving up a grade, this will help us highlight what the chapters are doing right, which is contributing to their upward movement. The chapters can find out per quarter how well they are doing that far. They will be able to track their performance for three quarters, the last quarter results are revealed at the awards ceremony. Where chapters are being recognised for their hard work and impact they made in the life of GBR members, and certain incentives could be given depending on what’s available. During this awards or recognition ceremony chapters that did well can move up a grade or those that did not do well, can slide down a grade if they did not meet the requirements of their specific grade, this movement can only happen once a year.
The awards ceremony can focus on the top three chapters per category, can also focus on other desired behaviours, such as number of chapters mentored, number of new chapters that came out of the original chapter, etc.
This is how the Chapters are graded There are four grades: 1. Bronze: 10 to 150 points per year. 2. Silver: 151 to 250 points per year. 3. Gold: 251 to 350 points per year. 4. Platinum: 351 to 500 points per year.
Should we have chapters that consistently score above 500 points, then we could add a new category and call it a Diamond category.
