### Checking and Affirmation Levels
### Checking Levels
Checking levels are designed to expand the sphere of people who have the opportunity to check and affirm the quality of the translation. There are three levels of checking that lead to three affirmation levels.
Checking levels are designed to expand the sphere of people who have the opportunity to check and affirm the quality of the translation. There are three levels of checking that lead to three levels of affirmation.
The three affirmation levels are as follows:
The three checking levels are as follows:
* Level One: level-one checked and affirmed by the translation team.
* Level Two: level-two checked and affimed by the leaders of a local church and the Christian community.
* Level Three: level-three checked by the leaders of multiple local churches, a network of churches, or multiple evangelical denominations
* Level One Check: done by the translation team.
* Level Two Check: done by the leaders of a local church and the Christian community.
* Level Three Check: done by the leaders of multiple local churches, a network of churches, or multiple evangelical denominations.
### How Affirmation Levels Are Reached
### What the Checks Achieve
During a MAST workshop the translators engage in the checking steps (steps 5-8) as a team. This platform assures that the individual's work is edited by other members. Additionally, these steps give team members the responsibility of working together to agree on and affirm the final product. Once this is done, Level One has been achieved.
Each of the checking levels results in an affirmation level. The checking levels as explained in this manual are a guide for affirming quality and expanding the exposure of a new translation.
Once Level One has been achieived, the team is encourageed to print or otherwise publish their translation so that it can be immediately useful. At this time they are also invited to upload their translation to the Wycliffe Associates content server. This provides for the next two checking levels. When the translation has been affirmed by church leaders and other Christian members of the community it is considered to have reached Level Two. Finally, some translation teams may wish to have their work reviewed and validated by a network of denominational leaders and scholars. If this is achieived the translation is considered to have reached Level Three.

Additionally, these steps give team members the responsibility of working together to agree on and affirm the final product. Once this is done, the translation has reached Affirmation Level One.
Once the translation has reached Level One, the translation team and church leaders will determine what further checking and subsequent levels should be reached. The levels as explained in this manual are a guide for affirming quality and expanding the exposure of a new translation.
At this point, the team is encourageed to print or otherwise publish their translation so that it can be immediately useful.They are also invited to upload their translation to the Wycliffe Associates content server.
Also at this point, the translation team and church leaders will determine what further checking and subsequent affirmation levels should be reached.
Level Two Check is done by the church leaders and other Christian members of the community. When any needed changes have been made and the leaders and members have affirmed the quality of the translation, the translation has reached Affirmation Level Two.
Finally, some translation teams may wish to have their work reviewed and affirmed by a network of denominational leaders and scholars. When any needed changes have been made and the network of leaders and scholars has affirmed the quality of the translation, the translation has reached Affirmation Level Three.
