How do I know if I am making progress? 
RangeConverter GTO training program a system of badges and crowns. Key areas are represented in the UI as a wall of badges to fill in and complete.
Click on a badge to train hands from just that category.

The key skills badges represent proficiency in key areas essential to a poker player e.g. opening ranges, blind defense. Different game types will have different Key Skills badges relevant to that game.

There is also an Overall Skill badge to play a fast fold game where you'll face a variety of scenarios and play through a hand. You'll still be scored in each of the relevant Key Skills badges as you face decisions in those areas.

Each of the badges fills up according to progress in that area and turns into a crown when complete. You will collect crowns as you play hands correctly in Key Skills categories. Overall Skill crowns are awarded as you collect crowns in the Key Skills.

The evaluation ring around a badge is colored according to average score.
This is the same as the hand scoring, and will be colored red, orange, yellow and green, depending on average performance.
Red color means blunder, orange means large mixing error and yellow - small mixing error. Green ring means correct.
Goal is to collect all 5 crowns with a green ring for each of the Key Skills badges.
