Muscle System Specialist Certification – Practical Examination

$350.00

The Practical Examination is a combination of performing various aspects of the consultation process, the assessment process, the analysis and decision-making process, the report of findings process, the field screens, and using the various contraction modes. As the Testee, you are required to bring two completed real client case files for review by the examiner.

3.5 Hours is allotted to complete the practical examination (approximately 10 minutes per requirement)

 

Post Practical Examination

The Examiner(s) will progressively score each requirement and add the line entry score to obtain a final total.

The Examiner(s) will review the examination results with the Testee and show what areas need to be reviewed for both passing and non-passing scores.

If less than 70 points have been scored, then a re-examination will be scheduled within 6 months.

There is a limit of 3 re-examinations.

If the Testee cannot pass the examination following 4 total attempts they can either abandon the process or retake the specific MSS Weekends (at their expense) that teach the requirements that are contributing to the non-passing final score.
