Section A: Rules and Guidelines


Section B: Certification and Special Forms

Go to Students--> How to Participate, Table 4B to determine if a project needs a Certification Form or additional Forms BEFORE starting with experimentation. 

Additional Forms may be required AFTER the project is completed. Go to Students-->How to Participate, Step 8B  to see if these additional forms need to be completed by the Qualified Scientist and submitted during the screening process.
