TEST REQUIREMENTS
If you are studying in a Tracy School or under a Tracy Instructor your Teacher is empowered to promote you to any rank to which he or she feels you are qualified. If you would like to be certified by the Senior Council, and have the signatures of the Council on your diploma, you can test before the Council. It will not be a comprehensive test, but rather an abbreviated test to verify and validate your skill level to the satisfaction of the Council members. This in no way reflects upon the decision of your instructor but rather satisfies the Council and eliminates any suggestion of “rubber stamping” rank.
