If a student completes all the course activities but does not pass the final exam for the IBJJF Self-Paced Rules Course, they can retake the course at no extra cost to try the final exam again. To start this process, students should email ibjjf@ibjjf.com to request a reset of all activities on the learning platform.

Keep in mind that students retaking the course must redo all activities, such as watching videos and taking quizzes, not just retaking the final exam. The student will have a six-month window to request a retrial of the course and final exam.

Students who fail the Final Exam of the Live Webinar course, they must either sign up for another Live Webinar or enroll in the Self-Paced Rules Course at full price if they want to attempt the certification exam again.
