Just loking for some feedback here guys.
Does your state mandate the NFHS Part 1 test in order for you to work high school baseball games?
Is the NFHS Part 2 test given in your state? If so, is it mandated or used for promotion or post season assignments?
In Illinois the Part 1 test is open book and issued with rule books and season info. We have a few weeks to return it or we can take it online and it is scored immediately. (Although, you won't know which ones are incorrect until the testing phase concludes - then an answer key is posted.) It also serves as one element of ranking for post season assignments. (In Illinois, the post season is scheduled by the IHSA) The Part 2 test is used for promotion to the next level, although all officials are encouraged to take it as a refresher or to hone their skills.
Please provide your home state when giving your thoughts.
