Proposed Assessment Framework

The assessment content below is a proposed framework published for transparency. Criteria, weighting and pass thresholds are pending ratification by the CGIA technical committee and are not yet effective examination rules.

CGIA specialist certifications are assessed through a formal professional examination process. Detailed assessment standards and examiner criteria are controlled CGIA materials.

How Assessment Works

  1. 01

    Prepare

  2. 02

    Technical Assessment

  3. 03

    Teaching Assessment

  4. 04

    Certification

Technical Assessment

Assesses the candidate's own specialist riding performance.

Teaching Assessment

Assesses the ability to analyse, demonstrate, explain, teach and adapt specialist skills, including safety management.

Technical Badge / Teaching Badge — each earned by passing its own assessment, with a confirming document.

Instructor Certificate — requires both badges in the same discipline at the same level.

Holding a Technical Badge alone does not grant an Instructor Certificate.
