*PSA rated:

Rated coaches have taken exams through the PSA to continue their education in the field of figure skating.  The PSA Official Rating System is for coaches who wish to validate their skating skill and teaching experience.  Ratings are an assurance to clubs, rinks, skaters, parents and the general public that the coach they hire is technically qualified to instruct at the level in which they are rated.  Rating levels are offered at a basic accreditation level, and then in several disciplines at a registered, certified, senior and master level.
