The FET will be made mandatory from mid-July 2021 for all instructors and staff who come into contact with unmasked persons in the course of their work. They are required to be on a regular FET regime using tests such as the Antigen Rapid Test (ART), regardless of their vaccination status.<\/p>\n This email provides some information on the necessary follow-ups required by those of you who are SEP arts instructors<\/span>\u00a0in the following fields:<\/p>\n Instructors conducting MASKED<\/span> dance, singing, wind\/brass instruments, voice and theatre training (including speech and drama, acting training) activities: Do inform NAC here<\/a> if you have no intention to conduct mask-off activities, i.e. no need to take part in FET.<\/p>\n Instructors conducting UNMASKED<\/span> singing, wind\/brass instruments, voice and theatre training (including speech and drama, actor training) activities: Register your preference for an appointment at a Quick Test Centre (QTC) via this form here<\/a>.<\/p>\n You will be assigned a time slot based on a first-come-first-serve basis.
