VIRTUAL TESTS
We want to ensure skaters can progress through their skating journey as smoothly as possible – and for that, our test format needs to evolve, starting with our Skills Tests. ​
In 7th October 2024 we began piloting virtual Skills Tests, starting with a limited number of skaters while we trial the new systems and infrastructure. As we continue to develop all areas of virtual testing, any skater can apply for their Skills Test Virtually. Please email test.membership@iceskating.org.uk for support to do this.
​
Below you can find more information about what the move to virtual tests looks like and why we are moving in this direction.
THE FUTURE OF BIS TESTS IS ALMOST HERE!
HOW WILL VIRTUAL TESTS WORK?
Instead of performing in front of a live judging panel at a dedicated test session, skaters will be able to submit videos of their performance for judges to review. Clear guidance will be provided to help skaters and coaches capture their performance accurately, and skaters can record multiple attempts before choosing to submit their best version.
​
Detailed information on what the virtual test process will involve can be found here:
