# How do I validate my members’ benchmark scores?

## The trainer or a staff member needs to validate the member’s benchmark score to ensure that the exercise was supervised and approved by a certified trainer. Once the score is validated the benchmark will be updated and added to the leaderboard.

When a member logs a benchmark score, a trainer or staff member validates it to confirm the effort was supervised. Once a score is validated, the member's benchmark is updated and the score is added to the leaderboard.

1. Go to **Workouts \>\> Benchmarks \>\> Validate**.
2. Search for the member, if needed.
3. Click **Validate** or **Reject** next to the score.

To validate every waiting score at once, click **Approve All** (top right). If there are no scores waiting, the page shows **No Data**.
