The re-evaluation is divided into the different disciplines. You select discipline at the end of this page. 

For the written tests you submit your answers direct on line. For disciplines with a practical part, you download a score sheet, fill in you scores and e-mail your score sheet to an designated e-mail, given to you from your examiner.

You must pass the exam with a score of at least 80 % in written to be eligible for a rating.

There is a 90 minute time limit to read and complete this written exam.

You must not talk with other candidates during the exam.

You may ask the Examining Judge to explain any questions which you do not understand.

If your grasp of English requires it, the Examining Judge may allow you to explain your answer verbally after you have completed the paper.

The theory and practical parts of the assessment must be completed within two months of each other.

Criteria for Evaluation of Judges

The evaluation in Freefall Style, Formation Skydiving, Canopy Formation and the Artistic Events will be made using recording media. If applicable, a copy of the relevant dive pool is provided with media.

The approved assessment makes allowance for judgement decisions. It may, for example, in the Freefall Style event, be a range of angles, which may include zero, as a penalty. In Formation Skydiving or Canopy Formation it may include the case where correct or incorrect would both be acceptable assessments of a particular formation or intermediate. The approved assessment is not always the collated score of the Judges being evaluated.

The evaluation in all disciplines will include an exam on the content of the Sporting Code and relevant Competition Rules. At least 80 % of the questions must be answered correctly.
