31
+ The Nak Tham examination is a system for evaluating Buddhist knowledge levels among ordained monks
32
+ and Buddhist practitioners. It is organized by the Religious Affairs Department's Dhamma Education Office
33
+ (Sanam Luang). The examination is held once annually and is divided into two main categories:
34
+
35
+ 1. "Nak Tham" - Examinations for Buddhist monks and novices
36
+ 2. "Dhamma Studies" (Tham Sueksa) - Examinations for laypeople and general public interested in Buddhist teachings
37
+
38
+ Both categories are structured into three levels:
39
+ - Elementary Level (Chan Tri)
40
+ - Intermediate Level (Chan Tho)
41
+ - Advanced Level (Chan Ek)
