Academy access lets you study the library. Completing lessons or paying a fee does not establish proficiency or automatically award martial rank.
Assessment registration is not open yet.

Curriculum-level assessment

Rank examination
$199approved assessment fee · registration closed

How an assessment will work
- Confirm eligibility and prerequisites with the school before paying.
- Review the requirements, fee, examiner availability and final registration terms.
- Submit the required evidence. Rank examinations also require a live component.
- An authorized instructor reviews the work, records feedback and decides the outcome. A passed assessment can receive its approved certificate or rank.
Planned assessment terms
- One focused correction recheck within 60 days is included.
- A larger assessment includes its required smaller components. Eligible recent assessments can count toward the larger fee.
- On-campus belt testing already included in tuition stays included.
- The feedback target is 10 business days, subject to examiner capacity, with a free appeal to a different authorized examiner.
Unused-assessment refunds, cancellation rights, overlap credits and private evidence handling must be finalized before registration opens. Advanced ranks and instructor credentials require separate standards. Available course certificates record completed study; they do not automatically confer a belt rank or professional qualification.
