Types of Credentials Issued
The Classical Academy of Arms issues credentials as classical fencing trainers for classical fencers. Details of the requirements for trainers are available at the Ranks, Instructor Skills, and Apprentice Instructor pages on this website.
Individuals holding Classical Academy of Arms should be able to produce an Academy certifciate or a Student Record and Transcript with the Academy's seal stamped on it or to document their credential with an electronic open badge in of the patterns below (colors may vary due to a change in badging platform).
The following is a current list of all individuals holding up-to-date credentials. Maintenance of the credential requires the completion of a minimum of 12 hours of continuing professional education during the calendar year. Individuals who present certificates for credentials who are not listed below have failed to maintain the credential appropriately. We believe that continuing education is vital to skill maintenance, awareness of improvements in training methods, and familiarity with current research related to fencing in general and classical fencing in particular.
