Course Designer Role Description
Course Designers Logbook
The Officials Logbook has been created to help aid, track and monitor development through the Officiating Levels. The Logbook captures some of the key Criteria and Competencies of each Level and is used as a guide for recommendation. Officials who are upgrading will be expected to complete this as part of their upgrade. Until the end of 2027, applications for upgrade using both old and new style logbooks and application forms will be accepted. Course Designers are encouraged to create a portfolio of works including master plans with heights and distances, to help show depth of knowledge and experience. Logbooks can be downloaded below.

Regional Official Mentors
The Regional Official Mentors were introduced to help Officials on a more local basis with any questions, queries or problems that may arise. Each of the Regional Official Mentors were appointed following an application process, and were appointed as proactive and forward thinking individuals who displayed experience in developing and progressing individuals. The Regional Official Mentors will also act as a link between Regional Officials and British Showjumping. Details of the Regional Official Mentors can be found on the Resources page or by emailing officials@britishshowjumping.co.uk
