Obtaining Level 3 Status
The advancement to Level 3 is a decision made by the Member officiating development program and may be subject to identification by the Member and local hockey association as meeting/exceeding the performance levels of Level 2. This may be done through on-ice evaluations and performance. Ideally, an official would spend two seasons developing in Level 2 before advancement to Level 3, but Members have the ability to advance officials who they feel meet the criteria of Level 3.
