First off I want to thank Jeremy Pendrey for his presentation last night about becoming a recognized BJCP judge. As he outlined the first step is to pass the online entrance exam. Below you will find links to all the resources he cited to help towards that first step. I also encourage us to share any other resources or organize groups outside of our meetings to study.

The next step is taking the actual Exam. As Jeremy referenced we (DOZE) will try and organize one or two study sessions outside of our meetings for those who are interested and have passed the entrance exam. Also BAM is looking to organize a more formal and focused study group that will consist of 10 sessions with about 30 or so attendees. We are unsure how many slots if any will be available to DOZE members but to be eligible you will of had to of passed the entrance exam. So if you are interested in becoming a Recognized judge and helping the club achieve it’s goal this year start studying and take the entrance exam.
