Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Noted Customer role, and how do I obtain it?

The Noted Customer role was made to recognize noteworthy members within our group. This role is given to contributors, former SHRs, and alliance representatives.

How may I become a Trainee?

To become a Trainee, you must first, join our group, then you may head over to our Application Center. If you’ve successfully completed the application, you will automatically be ranked within our group.

Promotions are given out to those who have proven to be active, responsible, professional, and dedicated. Traits we look for when promoting are:
