3This is a podium, but, if you wanted to be more specific, you could also call it a medal podium. In the future, you might want to ask a question like this one on English Language Learners.– J.R. ♦Jul 4, 2016 at 0:11

1Competition podium, medal podium, you could even call it a histogram podium but only your math nerd friends would understand you.– candied_orangeJul 4, 2016 at 5:43

I'd say this is a three–tiered rostrum.
A raised platform on which a person stands to make a public speech, receive an award or medal, play music, or conduct an orchestra:
speaker after speaker stepped up to the rostrum

It is a podium.
While technically it may also be called a rostrum, podium is the more common term. This has led to the phrase "podium finish" (usually the achievement of finishing in the top 3), and the awful verb "to podium".

The past participle of the verb "to lead" is "led." Jul 4, 2016 at 20:24
