  2. If your in the UK ( which I know the starter of this thread isn't) Ask
    the UUU commitee who and where your local UUU/IUF levels tester is. OR
    come along to BUC11 where there will be a level testing session on offer
    amoung the workshops. Levels test sessions also take place at some Uni
    meets.

    There are UUU level testers in the SW, SE, IoW, Midlands, NE and NW
    of England. UUU would like to find some people who are willing to train
    as testers who live in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, we just
    havn't found them yet:-)

  4. Hi, Nick.

    Under the current rules, you may self-test for Levels 1 through 4. For
    5 and above, you must find a certified level tester.

    One of the responsibilities of the USA, Inc. Skills Development
    Committee has been to develop a list of level testers. We've gathered
    names for the past year and a half.

    Here's the current list of USA, Inc. members registered as level
    testers. If you want to reach someone on this list, please let me know.
    If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email:

    cettermclean at hotmail dot com.

    Good luck on testing!

    What does 1-4 mean if anyone may self-test?

    Clearly a system of 1/14 and 1/16 is not decimal - Mikefule on the English weight system

  7. Unfortunately, the rules for the existing 10-level system have not been
    updated and have several problems. So, in fact, no one needs to be
    certified to test levels 1 to 4.

    On the other hand, we have created a list of people who have received
    training in level testing, so we've included those names on the list of
    certified testers. If riders would like to test with someone who is
    trained, they should contact someone from the list for the first four
    levels, though it isn't required.

    Testing is almost meaningless unless everyone is following the same set
    of rules. So far, that hasn't been the case, and it's been difficult to
    resolve the problems with the old level system.

    The committee is working on a new system that takes care of all these
    issues. It's been a huge, time-consuming task so far, but we have made
    lots of progress.

    If you'd like to hear more, or offer some feedback, just let me know.

    Thanks.

    Carol

    *

    Please note. This self certifying is a USA levels rule.
    It does not apply to UUU/IUF levels testing. In the UK if you want a
    certificate, you have to pass the test with a UUU tester.
