The final step in the certification process is to be evaluated on the court by members of the region rating and training team. This is to allow everyone to experience a live game situation at a tournament. The focus is on learning, and new officials will be given training and guidance during this process. If the prospective official demonstrates proficiency by the end of the training and evaluation, and all other certification criteria have been met, including participating as an official at required Florida Region sanctioned events, a USAV Provisional patch will be awarded and the new official will be eligible for assignments.
