PARTICIPATION RULES AND
CONDITIONS IN THE IJF ACADEMY
Coaching Certification
Only the International Judo Federation (IJF) and National Federations affiliated with the IJF can nominate students to the IJF Academy.
Every student must have a personal email address that will be used throughout the entire course period. It is recommended that a new Gmail account be created for this purpose - https://accounts.google.com/signup.
A First Aid certificate is required before the final certificate for the UCJI is issued.
If you need to change the email address you are using, please contact academy@ijf.org to reset your email address.
The platform supports multiple languages. Students can initially select their preferred language, but they can switch to any of the available languages at any time during the course.
Students are required to complete their User Profile on the platform immediately after registration to provide all the necessary data in the User Profile section.
Students must upload a passport-type photo and a scanned copy of their national ID or passport when signing up for the platform.
Students can follow the study material on the platform or download it for offline use. No material is sent in any other way.
Trial Tests open every Wednesday at midnight (Coordinated Universal Time) and offer a maximum of 5 attempts for testing knowledge and preparation for the Module Examination. These Trial Tests are for practising purposes only! Their results will not affect the final result of the student.
Module Examination (camera examination) opens every Saturday at midnight (Coordinated Universal Time) and will remain open until the last day of the semester. The student is allowed a maximum of 2 attempts. Every student should achieve a minimum grade of 60% in any of the two attempts. Students must adhere to the rules of the Monitoring phase throughout the semester. Such information is included in the semester schedule (Week-by-week schedule PDF document) that is sent to all students by email on the first day of the semester.
A student will not be invited to the Online Digital Test (ODT) unless they achieve a score of 60% or higher in all indicated modules.
Students can monitor their progress and results by downloading their status by clicking on the “Online Results” button in the section “Your Courses” on the platform.
The IJF Academy management will not notify students about their progress or missing Module Examination (camera examinations), as this is the responsibility of the students.
The semester closes according to the set and published schedule of the relevant course (see the Week-by-week schedule PDF document).
Students who, for valid reasons, do not achieve a grade of 60% or higher in all modules must follow the rules stated in the Student Handbook.
In the event that a student, for valid reasons, cannot achieve a score of 60% in all related theoretical modules, the IJF Academy has the facility to organise this exam remotely after the student satisfies this requirement.
In the event of situations not covered by these rules, the IJF Academy Board of Directors and the IJF reserve the right to take appropriate decisions and actions they deem suitable.
