Local Technical Official Course

[muiriosaryan]

Triathlon Ireland is pleased to announce the introduction of our new Local Technical Official (LTO) course taking place throughout February and March 2017. The LTO course is the initial segment of the accredited Technical Officials education programme that matches the accreditation requirements to conform with the ITU Level 1 Technical Officials certificate programme.

The Local Technical Official course is the initial step on the ITU officiating pathway. The Local Technical Official qualification is aimed at any person who is interested in becoming a volunteer Technical Official and has been designed to provide attendees with the knowledge and skills needed to confidently officiate at Triathlon Ireland sanctioned events.

The training is made up of:
• A full day course
• Open book MCQ
• The completion of six shadows of qualified Officials
• Completion and submission of event reports

Following the successful completion of the theoretical and practical elements, candidates will be eligible to officiate as Technical Delegates and Race Referees at TI events. Furthermore, successful LTOs will have the opportunity to complete the National Technical Official course to qualify as an ITU Level 1 Technical Official
Pre-Requisites

To attend the LTO course candidates must:
• Be a minimum of 18 years of age

Cost of Courses
The course is free of charge.
