REVIEWS FROM PEOPLE who have ALREADY achieved results
“After becoming an international judge, I was able to position myself differently as an expert. I increased the cost of my services and training, and the level of trust from my clients and students grew significantly. My judging status has truly had an impact on my income.”
“When I was presented with my personalized Judge Cup on stage in Barcelona, I realized that I had reached a completely new professional level. It’s an incredible feeling to have your experience recognized on the international stage.”
“I worked as a master for many years and didn’t know what my next step should be. IBJA helped me transition from the role of a master to that of an expert and international judge. Now I can not only create work, but also professionally evaluate the work of other masters.”
“After completing the training, new professional opportunities opened up for me, along with the chance to connect with colleagues from different countries. International judging became a new direction for my professional development and helped me move beyond the usual role of a master.”
