JUDGE TRAINING

The continual professional development (CPD) requirements for 2021 have been extended until the end of March 2022 by which time a minimum of four hours’ technical training must have been completed. This can be at the current level, or at the level above if the judge is considering an upgrade. Judges are reminded that CPD is important to ensure good quality judging and should not be considered a box-ticking exercise. An example could be attending two Zoom sessions or a combination of one face-to-face interactive session and a Zoom session. Please note that the non-technical workshops do not count as technical training.

Anyone not able to complete this is advised to refer to the reinstatement of judges policy on the website and if you are unable to fulfi l this requirement must write to offi cials@britishdressage.co.uk. Judges are reminded that they should be up-to-date with CPD before they judge.

We have launched online seminars with the eDressage platform Black Horse One. These seminars offer the opportunity to judge a set of level-specifi c tests using the online platform, to then focus on areas for development regarding specifi c technical movements. These are available for all judges, including trainees. Please ensure that you register for the relevant seminar either at your current level or the level you are looking to upgrade to.

ONLINE SEMINARS

These seminars are available to book through the Horse Monkey website where upcoming dates will be published in due course. Please fi lter your search to ‘British Dressage Judges’ to fi nd the booking page.
