Score bands
0–39 · Critical Gap → Foundation course + action plan
The fundamentals in this area are not yet in place. Start with a Foundation course and a written action plan before adding complexity anywhere else.
40–59 · Priority Gap → Professional course
Some practices exist but they are inconsistent. A Professional-level course will turn what you already do into a repeatable system.
60–74 · Growth Opportunity → Advanced course
Solid foundations. An Advanced course here is optional but high-return if you are actively pursuing growth.
75–89 · Strength → Advanced / mastery
This is a genuine strength of the business. Consider a mastery track to turn it into competitive advantage.
90–100 · Excellence → Mentor / Executive pathway
Excellent. The next step is the Executive MSME pathway, mentorship, or formal certification rather than another course.
