What else can I help you with?
Can I request my personal TIP supervisor to be my Mentor when I am promoted to Supervisor?
Yes! It is perfectly acceptable to request that your TIP supervisor be your mentor when you are promoted to supervisor. You should try and ask your TIP supervisor as soon as possible after graduating from TIP so that they are aware of your request in time.
What should I do if another supervisor tells me to stop doing something that I need to do to complete my TIP mission?
Inform the Supervisor that what you are doing is for your task in TIP and ask why they stopped you. And please inform your TIP Supervisor. They will be able to look deeper to see if the Supervisor was correct to stop you from performing your task. If the Supervisor was correct to stop you, your TIP Supervisor will explain why and offer you guidance. If the Supervisor was not correct to stop you, your TIP Supervisor will encourage you to continue with the task and inform the Supervisor they were wrong to interrupt you.
How do I get a personal TIP Supervisor?
By default your personal TIP Supervisor when you join the program is the TIP Supervisor who invited you. However you may be reassigned to either of the other TIP Supervisors at any time during your TIP membership. If you want to personally request to be Supervised by a particular TIP Supervisor (Xnicola or Skullcandy88), please let us know. When one of the TIP Supervisors is unavailable for some time, the other will temporarily step in.
Who should I talk to if I have a question about my TIP mission?
You should talk to your personal TIP supervisor about any questions that you have. Alternatively you can talk to another TIP supervisor or the program coordinator Zapallar.

Do you HAVE to join The Initiates Program to become a Supervisor?
No, not necessarily. You can join the Special Project Assistants and also become a Supervisor later. TIP generally takes less time than SPA, but TIP may be slightly stricter with how tasks are completed. In TIP you will also get a personal TIP Supervisor to help guide you.
What do I do if I have finished a TIP mission?
When you finish a TIP mission you should let your TIP supervisor know by leaving them a message. Your supervisor will then review your mission to make sure you have carried it out correctly. They will then assign you your next mission.
What should I do if I don't understand my TIP mission?
If you are unsure about any aspect of your TIP mission then you should let your TIP supervisor know. Your supervisor will be happy to explain anything to you in more detail to help you understand.
What can I do if I am struggling to find alternates for the alternates mission in The Initiates Program?
If you are struggling to find alternates to sort during your alternates mission in TIP, please get in touch with your TIP Supervisor. The TIP Supervisor will lend you a hand by providing a question or two with bad alternates. Though it is best to try and find these yourself to show your ability to recognise questions with messy alternates.
