Clear delivery guides and 

easy assessment processes

UIA provides detailed delivery guides for all registered tutors and centres to deliver its programmes. The administration process to enter students for programmes, medal/ rosette tests and examinations is easy, online and is well supported by the administration team. 

All handbooks, training and support materials are sent to centres and additional online or face to face coaching for teachers can be organised on request. 

At the heart of Urdang International Awards is a commitment to artistic integrity, fairness and educational rigour. We believe that performing arts education should inspire confidence, encourage creativity and provide clear benchmarks for achievement.
