FAMO Diploma Assessment

You have been building strong skills—bravo from all of us at art of motion! The FAMO Diploma Assessment is an assessment of these skills, but it is also an opportunity to refine your knowledge, reflect on your strengths, and identify areas for growth. The assessment day is a dynamic blend of teaching, movement, reflection, and knowledge distillation.

About the Assessment

During the assessment, we want to see, hear, and experience your understanding and embodiment of the FAMO concept, rather than a recitation of information from short-term memory. As a contemporary institute for adult education, we believe an assessment should benefit you. We do not test your reading skills with tricky multiple-choice questions, demoralise you, or overtax your body with unrealistic exercise goals.

If you have test anxiety, feel it is not the right time, or are apprehensive for any reason, we get it—we have been there too! However, we still encourage you to take this final step, as it will help you make the most of your FAMO education.

Components

The exam comprises three components, all of which must be successfully completed.

Theory Self-Assessment Test Sheets You will receive the PDF documents after the course.
