We typically hold Club-Level (D1-C2) certifications 4 times a year (March/April, June/July, Aug/Sep and Oct/Nov), or more, as needed.  In 2010, USPC implemented an Alternate Ratings Progression (ARP) in addition to the Classic or Traditional certification.  The ARP allows clubbers to test the HM, Flat and Jumping sections of a level, in that order, as separate tests or combined.  If all three sections are passed then the clubber will have achieved the Classic or Traditional certification at that level.  Upper levels (C3 and up) are tested at the National Level and require application through the Virginia Region for testing.
