Scoring for all regions is performed by volunteers from sponsors, the core team, directors, and from the industry. Communication between team members is nearly constant throughout the competition, to ensure that team members are utilizing a consistent and uniform method during scoring, and in answering questions that arise. Efforts are taken by the core CPTC team to ensure grading is equal amongst all teams by providing a consistent rubric, grading team, and an identical environment between each team.
Wildcard scores are compiled to normalize teams scores across all regions. To ensure parity across all regions, we require that individual graders must score all teams in every event in order for their scores to be considered in the wildcard selection process. This approach may result in minor discrepancies in placement of teams between individual regional events and the overall ranking across all regions for wildcard purposes.
