Additional Event Details:

The PSIA-AASI tryout process is a demonstration of skills and capabilities. Tryouts are not a job interview nor offer of employment. It is a pre-employment screening. Applicants will be required to submit a separate job application prior to being considered for a role as education staff member. Ed staff members are subject to a pre-employment background check.
