If you are interested in testing for L1 or L2 at this conference, please indicate this in your application. Testing will only be offered to judges who submit evidence of completed testing prerequisites at least 2 weeks prior to the event date. Instructions for submission will be e-mailed to interested candidates off-list.

*Foils only available to all certified judges participating in the event.  If you are certifying at the event, foils will be unavailable to you per Judge Program policy.

*The Great Lakes region records judge conference presentations and posts video and audio recordings online so that judges who could not be present physically can still benefit from them. If you are uncomfortable with photo, video, or audio recording of you being taken or shared in this way, please contact the conference organizer, or regional coordinator to discuss what possible accomodations are available.
