Linda Yutzy says :
September 17, 2014I am opposed to this global change. Our dressage tests are labeled as Training Level, etc. and I think this needs further consideration.
Zantke says :
October 8, 2014I agree with Lindaq

simon says :
October 8, 2014Divisions are Training, Preliminary, Intermediate, Advanced.
Classes are Single, Pair, Tandem, Unicorn, Four-in-hand.
Turnouts are horse, pony, small pony and VSE
Levels are defined in 901.3 and pertain to the FEI start system.
Using correct terminology is a good thing.
Correcting the label on a Dressage test is another thing.
