Main Stage Adjudicator Training

Welcome, Main Stage Adjudicators

Thank you for joining us as a Main Stage adjudicator for the 2026–2027 cycle. Every submission you review represents months of work from a troupe director and their students, and your feedback is often shared directly with those students when it’s over. Your scores and comments help educators keep growing as directors and help young performers see what’s working and where they can stretch. New this year, your recommendations will also help shape the ITF Main Stage lineup.

This short course will get you ready. You’ll watch two videos: the first covers conflicts of interest, confidentiality, the educational feedback rubric, and writing meaningful comments; the second covers the Main Stage selection process and how to use the adjudication platform. Each video ends with a quiz, and you’ll need to score 100% on both to earn your certificate of completion.

Take your time – and if questions come up along the way, Katie Stone is always just an email away.

With Gratitude, The EdTA Education Team
