Filling out this form is the first step in hosting a trial.

 

After the form is submitted, you will receive an email confirming receipt of your request. This is NOT an approval for your trial.

 

Note: A trial request is required 6-12 months prior to the trial date to help the NACSW with trial planning.

 

The NACSW may request additional information to move your request through the approval process. It is up to the host to determine the availability of a Certifying Official. We suggest you contact and try to schedule one for your trial event before or during the trial approval process.
