Exam trainers FAQ

Covid-19: Government restrictions in response to the Covid pandemic mean that clubs are not currently able to hold exams. The RSGB is providing remote invigilation exams at each licence level; and you currently do not need to pass a practical assessment to gain your Foundation licence. For further details, see our candidate information.

Do I need to be registered to teach on a course?

No, only Assessors need to be registered.

How do I become a Registered Assessor?

For full details see 'Becoming a Registered Assessor', where you can download an application form.

Does my club need to be registered before it can offer training?

Your club does not have to be registered to offer training, but a Registered Assessor must be present when assessments take place, and the club must be registered before it can request examination papers or hold examinations. Download the RSGB Registered Examination Venue Application Form (EX100) from Exam Forms.

How far in advance do Exam Secretaries need to apply for exams?

Please allow a minimum of two weeks - 10 working days - notice for all applications. If you have a candidate with special needs, please allow three weeks.
