Registration Questions:

Yes!  All officials have to attend a clinic annually and pass the applicable test(s) annually in order to be certified as a Referee or Scorer each season.  Certifications are good for one season only.  Members may log in to their member record to see when each of their certifications expire.

Category: Clinics

All Junior members will be automatically enrolled in the online Referee and Scorer clinics in the USA Volleyball Learning Management System (LMS).  To access the clinics, log in to your SE account, go to Household, choose the member’s profile and go to the Carolina Regional Volleyball membership section.  You can access the LMS from there.  Junior members will need to take the Referee and Scorer’s clinics online each season to get certified.

Coaches will need to register for their online clinics by going directly to the LMS (from within their SE account).  Once in the LMS, go to the Courses and enroll in the “Junior Officiating Coursework for Adults” curriculum to automatically be enrolled in all the same Junior clinics the players are taking.  This coursework is all that is needed for Coaches to meet the roster requirement.

The Region will enroll all our Professional Officials in their applicable clinics automatically.  Professional officials will also access the LMS from within their SE account per above.

Junior Clubs may choose to hold supplemental in-person officiating clinics to complement what is learned in the online clinics as well as get hands-on scoring practice before the tournaments.  These clinics are encouraged, but not required.  Per above, all certifications will be awarded online this season.

No.   The course keeps track of your progress automatically.  When your status is showing as 100% complete for the entire curriculum, the system should update your member record automatically to show you with either a Referee or Scorer certification (depends on which course you are taking).  As long as your Academy site is showing you with a completed module and your member record is eventually updated to show your certification, then you do not need to send us any documentation.  Our office will be able to look on the backend to see all progress within the USAV Academy for our members.

Category: Clinics

No.  The online Referee clinics have both Referee and Scorer modules in it.  A referee has to complete all modules of the Referee and Scorer clinics in order to get certified.  So, a Referee is automatically certified as a Scorer by default when they complete the course.  The online clinic will only allow us to associate one certification to the course so we are updating the Referee certification only.  It still means a certified Referee can work as a referee or scorer during the events.

If you take the Scorer ONLY clinics, then the Scorer certification will update in your member record.  If that is the only certification you have in your record, then you can only participate as a Scorer at tournaments.

All Junior members will be automatically enrolled in the online Referee and Scorer clinics in the USA Volleyball Learning Management System (LMS).  To access the clinics, log in to your SE account, go to Household, choose the member’s profile and go to the Carolina Regional Volleyball membership section.  You can access the LMS from there.  Junior members will need to take the Referee and Scorer’s clinics online each season to get certified.

Coaches will need to register for their online clinics by going directly to the LMS (from within their SE account).  Once in the LMS, go to the Courses and enroll in the “Junior Officiating Coursework for Adults” curriculum to automatically be enrolled in all the same Junior clinics the players are taking.  This coursework is all that is needed for Coaches to meet the roster requirement.

The Region will enroll all our Professional Officials in their applicable clinics automatically.  Professional officials will also access the LMS from within their SE account per above.

Junior Clubs may choose to hold supplemental in-person officiating clinics to complement what is learned in the online clinics as well as get hands-on scoring practice before the tournaments.  These clinics are encouraged, but not required.  Per above, all certifications will be awarded online this season.

No.   The course keeps track of your progress automatically.  When your status is showing as 100% complete for the entire curriculum, the system should update your member record automatically to show you with either a Referee or Scorer certification (depends on which course you are taking).  As long as your Academy site is showing you with a completed module and your member record is eventually updated to show your certification, then you do not need to send us any documentation.  Our office will be able to look on the backend to see all progress within the USAV Academy for our members.

No.  The online Referee clinics have both Referee and Scorer modules in it.  A referee has to complete all modules of the Referee and Scorer clinics in order to get certified.  So, a Referee is automatically certified as a Scorer by default when they complete the course.  The online clinic will only allow us to associate one certification to the course so we are updating the Referee certification only.  It still means a certified Referee can work as a referee or scorer during the events.

If you take the Scorer ONLY clinics, then the Scorer certification will update in your member record.  If that is the only certification you have in your record, then you can only participate as a Scorer at tournaments.
