The Grand Chapter's Board of Grand Examiners is in charge of our Certified Ritualist Program. This program consists of 5 levels. In order to receive the 1st level, a ritualistic hopeful must test and pass as proficient in the following (all positions, words, and floor movements): Opening/Closing, Dispensing from labor to refreshment and vice versa, as well as the receptions of the DDGHP and MEGHP. This level must be completed before moving on to any further levels.

For the 2nd through 5th levels, a ritualistic hopeful must test and pass as proficient (all positions, words, and floor movements) in each individual degree. The order of degrees in which the tests are completed does not matter. Most ritualists start with either the 5th or 6th degrees, but this is not the required order.

To schedule a test, reach out to your local Secretary or DDGHP. They will set you up with a member of the Board of Grand Examiners and other proficient members to test. You may also work with your local EHP to schedule Chapters of Instruction at your local chapter, and certified ritualists would be delighted to assist in your learning and development. Below is a list of all currently certified ritualists:
