I Passed Two of the Mandatory Figure Skating Coaching Exams!

I'm a person who is afraid of tests. (It's been A LONG TIME since I finished college!) Anyway...this week, I took the plunge and took the first two mandatory figure skating coaches exams. The exams were on figure skating coaching ethics and U.S. Figure Skating's rules. It wasn't "painful." I want to encourage all figure skating coaches to take the courses since the courses and exams are not all that "scary."

After July 1, 2010, anyone coaching figure skating at U.S. Figure Skating's sanctioned events will be required to meet a mandatory continuing education requirement. Course requirements may be met online or at Professional Skaters Association conferences, seminars, and workshops.
