When is remediation conducted in a belt test?

• A. Remediation is always after every attempt during the test.
• B. Sustainment remediation is before the belt test; belt-test remediation is after completion of the entire test.
• C. Remediation occurs only if the student fails.
• D. Remediation is not used in belt tests.

Answer: (B)

Remediation is planned in two phases around a belt test: sustainment remediation happens before the belt test to refresh and reinforce essential skills so the student is ready to perform at the required standard, and belt-test remediation happens after the entire test is completed to address any gaps observed during the evaluation and give a clear path to meet the belt criteria. This approach keeps readiness high and provides structured feedback after the test. It isn’t limited to failures, and it isn’t only after every attempt or never used.
