Terms and conditions

Who we are

Football Examination Board operates this website and the related services available through it, including examiner registration, account access, certificate purchasing, score submission, certificate generation and database verification.

Acceptance of these terms

By using this website or any related account, checkout, certificate or database service, you agree to these terms and conditions.

If you do not agree to these terms, you should not use the website or any of the services offered through it.

Using the site

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not damage, disable, overburden or impair the site or interfere with anyone else using it.

You must not

• Use the website in a fraudulent, misleading or unlawful way
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, server, database or account areas
• Upload malicious code, scripts or harmful files
• Use automated tools to scrape, copy or harvest data from the site without permission
• Misuse certificate search or verification tools
• Use another person’s account without permission

Accounts and registration

Some parts of the service require you to create an account. If you create an account, you are responsible for making sure your details are accurate and up to date.

You are also responsible for keeping your login details confidential and for all activity that takes place under your account.

We may suspend, restrict or close an account if we believe there has been misuse, fraud, false information, unauthorised access or any breach of these terms.

Children and young people

The service may involve records relating to children and young players. Where this applies, information may be submitted or managed by a coach, parent, guardian, school, club or another responsible adult as part of the service.

Users must make sure they have the right authority to submit information about a player and to request or use any related services.

Products and services

Football Examination Board may offer products and services through the website, including certificate credits, registrations, account access, certificate records, downloadable documents and related tools.

Product descriptions, service details and prices may be updated from time to time. We aim to keep the information on the site accurate, but mistakes can occasionally happen.

We reserve the right to update, withdraw or change services, products, pricing or website content without notice where reasonably necessary.

Orders and payments

Orders placed through the website are subject to acceptance. An order is not fully accepted until payment has been processed and we have confirmed it.

Payments are processed securely through third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment card details on our own servers.

If a payment fails, is declined or is later reversed, we may suspend access to the related service, certificate credits or account activity until the matter is resolved.

Certificate credits

Where certificate credits are sold through the site, those credits may only be used within the Football Examination Board platform and only for the purpose intended.

Credits are not transferable unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Unused credits may remain available on an account unless we clearly state otherwise at the point of purchase or later update the service terms.

Scores, certificates and records

Certificates and related database records are generated based on the information entered into the platform. Users are responsible for making sure the information they submit is accurate.

We may refuse to issue, suspend, amend or revoke a certificate or record where we believe information is inaccurate, misleading, fraudulent or submitted without proper authority.

A certificate record shown on the database is not a promise of future sporting ability, selection, employment or trial success. It is a record of the result held within the Football Examination Board system.

Database search and certificate verification

The website may allow users to search the database or verify certificate records using certain details. These tools are provided to confirm whether a record matches the information held on the system.

You must not use the database or verification tools for unlawful, abusive, misleading or unauthorised purposes.

We may limit, suspend or remove access to these tools at any time where needed for security, maintenance, legal reasons or misuse prevention.

Intellectual property

All content on this website, including text, branding, logos, graphics, layouts, designs, downloads, certificates and platform features, belongs to Football Examination Board or its licensors unless stated otherwise.

You may view and use the website for its intended purpose, but you must not copy, reproduce, republish, distribute, modify or commercially exploit any part of the site without written permission, except where the law allows it.

The WFEB, World Football Examination Board, also known as the FEB, Football Exam Board, created the concept of an online skills examination platform for football coaches and players that issues certificates and tracks player progress, and claims intellectual property rights in that platform concept and its related original materials.

The International Football Skills Test is a copyrighted 7-category skills assessment, and the International Goalkeeping Skills Test is a copyrighted 8-category skills assessment.

The WFEB also created the copyrighted concept of a 10-tier achievement pathway for players to track their footballing skills progression through the following categories: Pass, Pass+, Merit -, Merit, Merit+, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond and Mastery.
