DEUTSCHER JODO BUND e.V.
EXAMS
The German Jodo Bund e. V. (DJodoB) has a cooperation agreement with the German Kendo Bund e. V. (DKenB), which is connected to the International Kendo Federation (FIK) via the European Kendo Federation (EKF).
Therefore, everyone in the Deutscher Jodo Bund e. V. held examinations according to the valid EKF/IKF rules and are internationally recognised.
The dates for the exams and the exam announcements/registrations are published under EXAM DATES or on the EKF website.
Any natural member of the DJodoB as well as members of another EKF affiliated association can take the exam.
EXAMS IN GERMANY
The exam registration for DJodoB exams is only possible online (EXAM DATES).
The registration deadline is 2 weeks before the respective examination date at the latest.
The examination and registration fees are to be paid in cash on site.
