Purpose

- Conduct examinations in a more efficient way, giving members nationwide the opportunity to participate regardless of the number of students.
Members' Rules
A dance teacher must behave with objectivity and show integrity in professional and business level and must not accept to work on something that he/she is not qualified to.
In general the dance teacher must:

- Cooperate with other professionals and dance schools.
- Respect every student's uniqueness.
