AIDA Accreditation Guide and Test Package

Here you should be able to find everything you need to run an AIDA Adjudicator Accreditation Test. It's a good idea to read the AIDA Accreditation Guide before you start taking the test.

It's also recommended that you download the videos and play them locally during the test, and not stream them from this site (as we cannot guarantee uptime). Also don't forget to get the Adjudication Sheets - these are what candidates will use to write their adjudication of debates.

You may also download everything you need using BitTorrent, using this torrent file

The package ID for this test is May09, which you should write on the Adjudication Sheets so markers know which debate you watched.

Good luck!

Playback Problems
- If you can't watch the videos, it might be because some of the funky codecs used to compress them to be relatively small while retaining reasonably high quality. Use this small free media player that plays Everything - VLC Media Player
- You might also want to check if the files were fully downloaded. You can check them against their MD5 Hash values, and here's how to do that.
