Recertification Schedule
IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT RECERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
In order to recertify for 2010, all referees must attend a minimum of four hours of documented training in2009 Plus take and pass the test for a total of five hours of training. This training will be provided by LCSRA at its regularly-scheduled LCSRA meetings during the year. Five formal training sessions will be offered: in MARCH, APRIL, AUGUST, OCTOBER, and NOVEMBER. You must attend four of these sessions in order to meet this requirement (other eligible training includes the statewide clinic presented in Albuquerque in August). Please ensure that you sign-in for these meetings. Shorter training sessions will be offered at other regularly-scheduled LCSRA meetings during the year but will not count towards your formal training requirement for recertification. If you do not meet the four hour criteria you will have to attend a 4 hour clinic in the fall and pass the test for your 5 hour requirement.
If you only attend two or three, you will still need to attend the entire fall clinic, no exceptions.
Below is a tentative schedule of topics – these may change if NMSRA has any special requirements
