Level System Guide — From Recruit to Mentor
How Levels Work in Cyber Skool
Skool uses a 9-level progression system. As you participate, complete lessons, and help others, you earn points and level up. Here's what each level means in our community:
Level 1 = Recruit (Free, auto on join) — Welcome module + orientation
Level 2 = Explorer (Free) — Rest of Free Foundations, all 3 tracks. Unlocks posting to the feed.
Level 3 = Prepared (Free) — Full free library + upgrade prompt
Level 4 = Trainee (Beginner, on upgrade) — First Beginner modules, all 3 tracks
Level 5 = Analyst (Beginner) — Mid Beginner content + mock interview library
Level 6 = Operator (Beginner) — Full Beginner tier + resume rebuild sessions
Level 7 = Specialist (Pro, on upgrade) — First Pro labs unlocked. Unlocks chat/DM with other members.
Level 8 = Architect (Pro) — Advanced Pro modules + 1:1 mock interviews
Level 9 = Mentor (Pro) — Full library + invited to help newer members. Look for the Mentor tag!
How to Earn Points
You earn points automatically by being active in the community:
- Posting and commenting in the feed
- Getting replies on your comments (signals your post was helpful)
- Completing lessons and modules in the Classroom
- Attending live sessions
- Posting a "win" — job offer, cert passed, lab completed
- Answering another member's question (the most valuable contribution!)
The Core Rule
Tier = what library you can access. Level = how much of that library is unlocked.
Paying for a higher tier gets you into the room. Leveling up by participating is what moves you through it. That's what turns "paid and vanished" into "paid and actually stuck around."
