I'm sure you will have to jump through hoops as I hear your Examiner is pretty tough. Don't worry though, I'm sure you can handle it as a lot of others have done so

Not sure about the process these days but when i was an examiner for World Snooker, the process was a 1000 word written part about 10 technical subjects. Then there was a practical exam that lasted around 2 hours. I was examiner who put through the late Steve Prest through his seminar and he went on to pass as did Karen Corr and Neil Tomkins.
Like i say, not sure about the process now days.

Doc:

Jo is taking his IBSF Master Coach certification from me here at my facility in Alma, Ontario.

It seems he is a little nervous regarding the 'final exam' when in fact there is no real final exam but a continuous series of tests he has to learn and pass with my help.

It's a 5-day process usually and a little longer than the WPBSA training (which I guess is gone now)
