			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As <a title="NISOA Rules Refresher Test Will Move to ArbiterSports.com in 2011"  href="http://nymisoa.com/blog/2011/07/19/nisoa-rules-refresher-test-will-move-to-arbitersports-com-in-2011/" >previously announced</a>, the 2011 NISOA NCAA rules refresher test has moved to <a title="NCAA Soccer Central Hub Testing"  href="http://nymisoa.com/s/5y" >ArbiterSports.com</a> and is now available. The test must be taken online and submitted by August 19, 2011. The NCAA is requiring officials who wish to be considered for Division I post-season assignments to take the test and achieve 36 correct answers on the 40 question exam. NISOA members must complete the refresher test (no pass/fail) as a condition of maintaining their "member in good standing" status.</p>
<p>Until we find out whether the chapter can access the ArbiterSports.com database to verify whether chapter members have completed the refresher test, the Executive Board <strong>requires </strong>that each member shall retain the email or on-screen confirmation provided upon completion of the online test.</p>
<p><strong>Update August 7, 2011</strong> - <em>For NY Metro ISOA Members Only!!  </em>Please forward the email confirmation you receive from ArbiterSports.com when you submit the refresher test to refresher@nymisoa.com. Make sure you forward the confirmation email from the email address you have on record with our chapter.</p>
