How to use this

Start with a country, a beginner programme or an element. Open a level to read its collected requirements. Expand programme stages to see the exercises inside.

Try double Axel or three turn in the search box. Results show available definitions and matching evidence; not every question can be answered from the collection.

Compare programmes with similar purposes, then inspect their stages and requirements. Similar content does not mean the tests have the same difficulty or that one qualification transfers to another country.

Follow source links to check the original context. Where saved documents are available, you can read them here. Documents keep their dates; translations may be working translations rather than official wording.

This is a growing collection, not every requirement from every country. Missing results can mean missing or untranslated evidence, not that a skill is absent from a country’s programme. Read the coverage notes before drawing conclusions.

Coverage, updates and corrections

This is a growing reference, not a complete collection of every test. Material may be partial, historical or a working translation. No match does not mean a country does not teach an element.

Reference presentation updated . This is not a claim that every source was checked on that date. Individual documents retain their own dates and limitations.

Skills Assessment Resource Guide August 2024 Copyright © 2024 Skate Canada 10 Skills Exercises Skills Exercise Assessment Pattern All skills exercise patterns will use an X & O format. This pattern allows the skater to perform both directions (clockwise and counterclockwise) and both feet on one pattern. Skaters will complete one full “X” and “O” pattern for assessment purposes. Example: Skaters must: - Complete a full circle on each end pattern (“O” section), including one complete set of prescribed steps. - Complete at least one set of prescribed steps on the diagonal pattern (“X” section). Skaters may enter the skills exercise from any type of skating. There are no prescribed entry steps. Depending on the size and strength of the skater, the number of repetitions of prescribed steps within the exercise may vary. Skaters do not have to complete a full set of steps before moving to the next section. - Example: A skater skates a full “O” pattern but is only able to perform the first three steps of a final set of prescribed steps before exiting the “O” and moving to the “X” section. Skaters may join the “O” and “X” or the “X” and “O” with an extra step or two, if needed.
