Para Classification allows athletes with physical and visual impairments to compete in para competitions against other athletes in their allocated sports class, meaning they are competing based on skill level, and minimising the impact of the impairment in competition. Classifiers are an important part of this process, determining if the individual has an eligible impairment and if it meets the minimum impairment criteria.
This two-day course will provide you with the skills to become a National Level Para-Equestrian Classifier, subject to completing post course requirements. It is designed to use your knowledge and experience as a qualified physiotherapist or medical practitioner as a base on which to develop skills to become an accredited National Classifier. This is a theory-based and practical course which will allow you to put your learning into action through working with other qualified professionals as well as volunteer athletes.
