Levels of Mapping

Levels of Mapping are how a mapper can advance in mapping. If you are a mapper but you haven't been a mapper for atleast 5 months you follow this criteria, however if you have been a mapper for atleast 5 months, you follow the criteria which has grades instead of levels. When you reach Level 8, you stay there until you get to 5 months and you then start on the Grade Criteria.
