For Dance Competitions

---

Competitions that implement Tap Adjudicator Certification are making a clear statement about their standards.

They are prioritizing:

• Accuracy in Tap Evaluation
Judges understand what they are hearing and seeing.

• Consistency Across the Panel
A shared framework leads to more aligned scoring and feedback.

• Stronger Trust with Studios
Teachers and dancers feel confident that tap is being evaluated appropriately.

• Professional Development for Adjudicators
Judges are supported in expanding their skillset.

Implementing the certification is simple and requires minimal additional time or coordination.

Step 1
Purchase an Annual Competition License.

Step 2
Provide adjudicators with access to the training.

Step 3
Adjudicators complete the certification prior to the start of your season.

Competitions receive everything needed to implement the program effectively:

• Access to the Tap Adjudicator Handbook
• Training module for adjudicators
• Certification assessment
• Certification credentials for judges
• Implementation guidance

The Tap Adjudicator Certification Program is offered through an Annual Competition License, with pricing based on the number of events within a season.

This allows competitions to provide certification access to all adjudicators across their events.

On average, and based on the number of events and adjudicators, you can have ALL of your panel members certified for less than or equal to ONE large group entry fee...for the ENTIRE season!
