Imperial Navy Academy

Imperial Navy Academy, or INA, was archaic foundations that today's Imperial Academy is built on. Grand Admiral Veynom tasked the young Zachary Savk with creating it. Promoted to Flight Sergeant and Director of the INA he handled all new recruit testing and evaluation with a small test called the "ARIT"; Academy Recruit Indoctrination Test. It was a simple test that was designed to weed out certain people and also to provide a basic understanding of some of the tasks a new pilot would be expected to perform.

The initial version of the ARIT was created under Grand Admiral Veynom's command prior to Year 1. It was a simple test scored on 10 marks. During the middle of Year 1, a second and more elaborate version of the ARIT was introduced to function as a final examination in the Imperial Academy of the Galactic Empire. This followed its predecessor in terms of a 10-point scoring system, and academy graduates receiving a score of 7 or higher were awarded the [ARIT] ribbon. The ARIT became defunct with the development of the Imperial Academy Basic Graduate (IABG) examination at the end of Year 2 as part of a rehaul for the Imperial Academy.
