The event is sanctioned by the International Skating Union (ISU), and is the oldest of the four annual figure skating competitions designated “ISU Championships” (the others are the World, Four Continents, and World Junior Championships). Medals are awarded in the disciplines of men’s singles, ladies’ singles, pair skating, and ice dancing. The competition is generally held in January.
