This may have been in place for lead inspector's for some time (Al?). This year I was sent an e-mail notification from the FIRST Volunteer Resources Coordinator that I needed to complete a certification test. I assure you that robot inspectors will need to be quite familiar with Section 8 of the Game Manual to get a passing score.

I am tested (testy?) all the time. First is trying hard to insure that all inspections are uniform across the world. Russ Beavis has been devoting most (or all) of his time to keeping us up to date and being the go between with First. First is putting a lot of energy into this endeavor to help make your season better. Our big test is next weekend. Wish us luck.
