About Organizations

Things to be leery of when choosing an organization

• Organizations that give rank and instructor certifications to anyone who submits some type of prior certification certificate and pays a fee.
• Organizations with only a few national schools. If you move to another city, will you be able to find a nearby school?
• Organizations that have young master ranked instructors.
• Organizations that do nothing for you other than issue certificates.
• Organizations that have high fees in relation to what they offer you.
• Organizations that demand high fees from instructors, since these fees will be passed on to you as an increase in your school membership fees.
• An organization that is merely a subsidiary of the instructor just used as another way for the instructor to get money from students.
• Organizations that are not recognized by major international organizations, such as the World Taekwondo Federation and the International Taekwondo Federation.
• Some organizations exist only as a way for the owners to get money from gullible students or the general public.
