Officiating Certification Opportunities

The following Officials Courses have been established for this 2005-06 season.

Dec. 9-10, 2005:  CCC Level 1 and 2 Officials Certification Course: Kingswood Park, St. Albert (St. Albert NSC);  Course Conductor: Zanette Frost (TBC).

Currently, the curricula and examinations for these courses are being revamped to conform to the updated CCC Officials’ Manual, and thus examinations for Level 2 candidates will be given after the 2005-06 season.  To keep their ACTIVE status, current Level 2 Officials need to be recertified by attending one-half day Recertification Courses which will be arranged in Calgary and Edmonton and in conjunction with planned Level 2 Courses for new candidates.

The revised CCC Officials’ Manual Version 3.0 is now posted under “Officiating Resources” in the Officiating / Event Management menu on the CCC website at http://www.cccski.com/main.asp.  CCA has made copies of this 460-page document for purchase of $15.00.

CCA is offering the opportunity to two (2) Level 2 officials to attend the Nationals (in March, 2006 in Thunder Bay) to proceed to Level 3 and become Technical Delegates.  Member clubs are requested to submit candidates.

For further information, please contact John Cushing, CCA Director of  Events & Scheduling (780-438-6831; [email protected]), and / or Michael Neary, CCA Sport Manager (780-415-1738; [email protected]).
