The ASTA Certificate Advancement Program seeks to establish
definite goals and awards for students of all levels through
non-competitive examinations. Students are judged on technical and
musical preparedness at specific levels (Foundation Level- Level 10) by
an examiner of musical and pedagogical stature. A certificate of
achievement is awarded for each level successfully
completed.
