ADVANCED INSTITUTE
REGISTRATION POLICY AND PROCEDURES
1. The opportunity to register is first afforded to ADSJ member group
judges. They will have a two week advanced period in which to enroll beginning
on the first Wednesday in March. Registrations received before this date
will be returned. Registration forms are distributed in the Winter issue
of The Voice and on the ADSJ web site, adsj.org.
2. ADSJ member multiple breed judges with four or more breeds will have
an opportunity to enroll beginning on the third Wednesday in March. Registrations
received before this date will be returned.
3. After the second Wednesday in April any remaining seats will be made
available to all AKC approved judges of four or more breeds through ads
in the dog press.
4. Should a group class fail to reach a prescribed minimum number by
the first of June, ADSJ members with two or three breeds in that group
will be invited to register.
5. A guest may accompany a registrant to the Institute. However, a guest
will not
receive course material, attend classes or participate in the practice sessions,
except as
a handler, or receive a certificate. The additional fee will be: $300.00 for
a guest of
an ADSJ member registrant, or $350.00 for a guest of a non-member registrant.
This
additional fee will entitle the guest to double occupancy lodging (with registrant),
a
name tag, refreshments, all meals, social events and spectator seating at practice
sessions.

Group) and will be permitted to attend the breed presentations and practice
sessions for that class only.
