This has added tremendous confusion to the process, and basically requires people to pay annually to get their judging certified. What's more, it can cause grief for the Nat's CD since people can be certified to judge AMA and not FAI or vice versa in which case they're limited in how they can staff the judging. Our nats registration doesn't say anything about having to be certified in both AMA and FAI classes.<br> <br>I also think there's some merit in differentiating between original certification and re-certification. My son (16) certified on line the first time and really felt like he didn't know what he was doing. He knew the rules by taking the test, but with no video, no discussion, no ability to ask questions of a group, it was minimally helpful. This year we attended one of the judging certification classes where he saw the original video (outdated, but still very on point and very valuable if you're seeing it for the first time) and sat through some good discussion with other new pattern pilots and really came away with a much better understanding of how we judge. I on the other, took away very little, but was able to provide quite a bit to the new people in the group.<br> <br>Recertification is a different matter… emphasizing changes to the rules, and highlighting changes to the sequences. If anything, the current test almost hides those changes amid all the other rules we've followed for years. I realize I'm advocating for more work, but I think getting away from the cert classes for beginners is a mistake.<br>Mark Atwood<br>Paragon Consulting, Inc. | President<br>5885 Landerbrook Drive Suite 130, Cleveland Ohio, 44124<br>Direct: 440.229.2502 | Fax: 440.684.3102<br><a href="http://www.paragon-inc.com">www.paragon-inc.com</a><<a href="http://www.paragon-inc.com/" target="_blank" saprocessedanchor="true">http://www.paragon-inc.com/</a>><br> <br> <br>[cid:image001.<a href="mailto:png@01CE481F.E6A56C70">png@01CE481F.E6A56C70</a>]<br> <br>On Jul 10, 2013, at 4:38 PM, Jon Carter <<a href="mailto:joncarter60@comcast.net">joncarter60@comcast.net</a><<a href="mailto:joncarter60@comcast.net">mailto:joncarter60@comcast.net</a>>> wrote:<br> <br>The new FAI rule book will be published on 1/1/14.
