### Checking Level Three
Level Three checking will be done by groups or organizations that are recognized by the churches in a language community. The leaders from these groups will verify that they approve the translation. This approval is not required for distribution of the translation, but rather serves to validate it.
Participants in this level of checking need to be different from the ones who participated in level two. Each level is an expansion of exposure, and this is most significant in affirming the quality as well as noting any needed improvements.
The intent of this level is to affirm the alignment of the translation with the intent of the original texts and the sound doctrine of the Church historic and universal, through the review and affirmation by the leadership of the Church that speaks the language. Level 3 is thus achieved by the mutual agreement of the leadership of multiple church networks. The Church networks should be representative of the churches in the language community. Those checking the translation should be first-language speakers of the language, and those signing off on the check are those in leadership roles in the Church networks. A leader of a Church network who is also a first-language speaker of the language of the translation could both check the translation and sign off on its quality.
Level 3 is completed when the translation has been thoroughly checked and approved by the leadership (or their delegates) of at least two church networks. At this level, those who are participating in the check should (when possible) be trained/ordained through the church network and should therefore use every aspect of their own knowledge and training tools to check the scriptures. Addtionally, translation notes, translation words, translation questions, and the Reviewer's Guide--tools that are freely accessible on Bibleineverylanguage.org--are ideal for using at this level of checking. A translator, as designated by the translation team, should work with these checkers. If any areas of correction are recommended, the translator will take these concerns and recommended changes to the translation team to decide how to best improve the translation and what edits need to be made.

Here are some specific steps that can be followed for this check. However, the most important aspect of this check is to consider the authentic assessment rubric created by the translation team as the guide.

If there were problems with the translation, make plans to meet with the translation team and resolve these problems. After you meet with them, the translation team may need to check their revised translation with the community leaders to make sure that it still communicates well, and then meet with you again.
Once the translation team has addressed suggestions to the satisfaction of the checking team, the scripture is considered to be checked to level three. You may at this time, wish to fill out the approval of level 3 check together and sign it.
