We want to encourage both teacher and student to register for the exam. Students must have a teacher who belongs to ASTA in order to participate, students do not need to be a member of ASTA. Teachers who have students registered to take the exam are asked to volunteer time and/or talents in order to keep the exam running smoothly.
We will ask teachers to select their preferred window of volunteer time and request they work between one to two hours on either day. Students need not stay all day for the exam, they should arrive early enough before their time to warm up (roughly 30 minutes) and expect the exam to last as follows:
8 minutes for Foundation and Level 1
10 Minutes for Levels 2 and 3
15 minutes for Levels 4 and 5
20 minutes for Level 6 and 7
25 minutes for Level 8 and 9
30 minutes for Level 10
