Each school is required to appoint at least one Teacher-In-Charge (TIC) responsible for handling registration, payment, and overseeing the competition day. The designated teacher must have a ContestHub account to ensure our secretary is informed that you are the TIC representing your school. To be officially recognized as the TIC, please reach out to our customer support team using the phone number provided in FAQs 15.

For the Geography Explorer Competition, our system allows up to three teachers-in-charge to be assigned per school. If your school requires more than three teachers, please feel free to reach out to our support team for assistance.

To register your students, you must create a new account on ContestHub. If you register your students using a previous ContestHub account, we will assume that the students are from your previous school, and we will also assume that you are still a teacher there.

We do not have any minimum or maximum requirements for registration, as we warmly welcome all schools to participate in our competition.
