A perfect fit for continuous improvement
Ongoing commissioningThe process of verifying and documenting that a building and all of its systems and assemblies are planned, designed, installed, tested, operated, and maintained to meet the owner's project requirements. is a great option for baking continuous improvement for system and energy performance into your building operations. The credit is achieved by essentially repeating the process steps undertaken for retro-commissioning over a cycling two-year period.
To be successful, your ongoing commissioning program needs to go beyond preventive maintenance and system trending. Performance verification of energy efficiency measures implemented under EAc2 is also not sufficient on its own to meet the credit requirements. Instead, the ongoing commissioning work must include device checks, sensor checks, functional testing of equipment, alarm testing, point trending, and metering.
What's New in LEED v4
- Nothing new!
We have over 500 VAV boxes in our building. Do we have complete testing for each one every two years?
The LEED Reference Guide states that sampling is permitted for substantially similar systems, but the minimum rate should be 10 or 10%, whichever is greater. Additionally, a different sample of units or equipment should be tested every two years when sampling is applied.
EA Credit 3: Ongoing commissioning
To use the existing building commissioningThe process of verifying and documenting that a building and all of its systems and assemblies are planned, designed, installed, tested, operated, and maintained to meet the owner's project requirements. process to improve building operations, energy, and resource efficiency.
Meet the requirements of EA Credit Existing Building Commissioning–Analysis and EA Credit Existing Building Commissioning–Implementation.
Establish an ongoing commissioning process that includes planning, point monitoring, system testing, performance verification, corrective action response, ongoing measurement, and documentation to proactively address operating problems in the systems being commissioned.
Develop an on-going commissioning plan that defines the following:
- roles and responsibilities;
- measurement requirements (meters, points, metering systems, data access);
- the points to be tracked, with frequency and duration for trend monitoring;
- the limits of acceptable values for tracked points and metered values;
- the review process that will be used to evaluate performance;
- an action plan for identifying and correcting operational errors and deficiencies
- planning for repairs needed to maintain performance;
- the frequency of analyses in the first year (at least quarterly); and
- the subsequent analysis cycle (at least every 24 months).
Apply the requirements below to all direct energy-consuming or energy-producing systems, including lighting, process loads, HVAC&R, domestic water heating, and renewable energy.
- Update the systems manual with any modifications or new settings, and give the reason for any modifications from the original design. Define methods for improving operations and maintenance.
- Include quarterly reports during the first year of implementation and annual reports on the performance of building systems.
Continue to update the facility's operating and maintenance plan and current facilities requirementsThe implementation of the owner's project requirements, developed to confirm the owner's current operational needs and requirements. to reflect actual conditions and issue annual revisions of these documents.
Only activities associated with ongoing commissioning completed within two years of the LEED application may be included to show progress.

Whatever your occasion, you, your family, and your guests will treasure how Milesian's capture your event's importance with beauty, joy, and respect. Each of these important occasions focus on achievements of those individuals involved— and God is not one of them! Coming of Age Milesians believe that coming of age is life's most important individual achievement. Our unique ceremony reflects this significance as children are prepared for this memorable moment with studies that focus on understanding and applying our eight principles. Once youths come of age, Milesians consider them as young adults and expect them to accordingly conduct their lives. ("Teenager" only became a term of reference about 1922. Milesians don't use it!) Baby Naming We help bring joy to this celebration as parents gather with other members of our society and proclaim birth of their new child. Marriage Milesian ceremony specialists work with couples to create a memorable ceremony. Guests from other beliefs and societies will be impressed and comforted as they witness our marriage ceremonies. Renewal of Vows This ceremony expresses continuing devotion to each other for a wife and her husband as we celebrate that commitment made when their vows were first exchanged. Funerals Milesians do not mourn a death — they celebrate a life lived! Our tasteful ceremonies pay respect to both the departed and those who mourn. Milesians do not believe in an after-life.

Any day if a cricket fan is asked what would he or she love to watch given a choice between 20-20 and Test match and 90%(I think) would probably say 20-20 . In fact a Test match has started taking the form of 20-20 and finish off in 3 days rather than the whole 5 days. Shehwag has to be blamed for that probably because of irrespective of what form of cricket he is playing he males century at the same speed. Poor guy he is just doing what he is naturally good at. :-)
Given the age and time that we are in why do we think that a customer would wait for 9 months to see a solution implemented. Talk about an MDM Solution and we say that any implementation will take nothing less than 9 months. The customer has every right to say then "Thank You" and move on. The MDM solution ROI has to be shown in lesser time and the complexity has to be hidden. That will be the point where we will be make exceptional growth in markets like India. The Customers in growth market do not have a huge IT department to implement complex solution and neither do they have a window big enough as 9 months to see the ROI.
IBM has taken a step in the right direction by acquiring Initiate into the MDM portfolio and enables customers to implement the simple MDM solution at the same time and realize the ROI earlier. The conceptualization of a virtual MDM to a physical MDM would allow the customer to see the MDM path and end goal much more clearly.
The IBM InfoSphere Master Data Management V10 is the latest release from IBM MDM portfolio. Find all the details about it on the following URL
Hope it it a step in the righ direction to convert some of the MDM Test matches to a 20-20 and customers come flocking towards it. :-)

Product Notes
'Bands now-a-days are a dime a dozen...' says the band, 'that's how we found our name.' Who is Dimadoeszen? This group is a musical rock band, described as Colorado Champions of Classic Rock. Dimadoeszen consists of two amazing musicians; Daniel Stewart and David Battiste Jr. They have been playing together for about 6 years, and just became serious to share their talent with the rest of the world in 2006. Dimadoeszen is simply a band who just has the devotion and eagerness to play. These two guys are meant to play together, Dan is the optimum greatest guitar player and David is the outstanding distinguished drummer. They strengthen each other's strengths. Dimadoeszen just released their first album, Fondle My Emotions in early November. Their CD Release Concert was a huge success. Fondle My Emotions is an extraordinary selection of nine songs. The guys put their own attentive style into each song. You will notice it's hard to understand the denotation of some songs for example, what is Captain T. Watt and the Story of the Bearded Douche? The simple explanation, their songs exemplify their music ability. Dimadoeszen's distinct trait is that they focus on the content of the actual music, which sets them apart from other bands. Dimadoeszen is Dime a Dozen.

To the list of items that can be easily located with an iPhone (pizza joints, coffee shops, nearby friends), here's one addition that might surprise you: sex offenders.
Launched by ThinAir Wireless, a GPS-tracking and wireless monitoring company, the Offender Locator iPhone application lets users view registered sex offenders living in their area.
The app comes in free and paid versions, but after nearly two months in the App store, the 99-cent application is among the ten best-selling paid apps. Amid the games and entertainment applications, Offender Locator has grabbed the sixth spot on the list.
The company says the app is one part of its suite of "Peace of Mind" products (other services include a GPS tracking system for teenagers and an alert system that sends subscribers real-time text messages from government agencies about weather and emergency situations).
"The offender locator is kind of like the first step in peace of mind – who's your neighbor," said ThinAir Wireless CEO Howard "Trip" Wakefield. "Our goal is really to allow parents to be aware of the different people that are just living right around the corner from them."
App Pinpoints Registered Sex Offenders in a Neighborhood
Although he wouldn't provide specific numbers, he said both the free and paid versions have been downloaded tens of thousands of times since early June. The free version doesn't provide all of the locations of sex offenders in the area and only lets users access the app a limited number of times each day.
The app prompts users to type in their address and then generates a map of the area with pinpoints showing where sex offenders have said they live.
Although the information is available for free on each state's sex offender registry Web site, Wakefield said they charge a price for the full version because the technology to power their service is expensive. The information may be free online, but their tool makes it easier for the public to access it, he said.
"Our goal is to have the most accurate, most cutting edge tool," he said. "It's all about convenience."
But legal experts and those who work in public safety offer words of caution.
Each state maintains a registry of sex offenders who are required to disclose their addresses. But each state also varies in terms of the laws surrounding the prosecution and tracking of sex offenders. And, even the state databases (from which Offender Locator draws its information) are not always up to date and entirely accurate.
Legal Experts Caution that Info May Not Be Up to Date
"People have to be really careful. If you look at the various state Web sites, they all have disclaimers saying you can't trust the information," said Lee Tien, a senior staff attorney for the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "You rely at your own risk."
Sometimes the lists include sex offenders who have died or have not been updated with the latest addresses, he pointed out. You could look at the list and, depending on what you find, feel safe or threatened, but the feeling wouldn't necessarily be based on accurate information.
Wakefield conceded that tracking the nearly 700,000 registered sex offenders (according to the non-profit Stop Child Predators) is an arduous task. He said some of the less populous states are a few months behind but added that in a few months they intend to automate the process so that the system updates every two days.
For their part, child protection advocates back technology that makes this information more accessible to the public.
Stacie Rumenap, president of Stop Child Predators, acknowledged that that "there's always going to be some room for error" when it comes to technology that is aggregating information related to the hundreds of thousands of sex offenders.
But she applauded the ThinAir for offering technology that helps keep children safe.
"We would caution parents to make sure that they would know their neighbors and look at the information and read it like they would read any information," she said. But, ultimately, said about the company behind the app, "we commend them."
And there are myriad other app developers taking advantage of the growth of wireless handheld devices.
Here's a small sampling:
App Find Medicinal Marijuana Providers
Smoking marijuana is known to have an adverse effect on memory and concentration, but now, thanks to a new iPhone application, even the foggiest of users should be able to locate their connection -- make that medicinal marijuana provider -- with relative ease.
Launched by AJNAG (Activists Justifying the Natural Agriculture of Ganja), a Web-based community advocating for medical marijuana, the Cannabis app takes those seeking medicinal marijuana through the entire process of obtaining it. The app is downloadable from Apple's store for $2.99.
"Our goal is to put the power of cannabis change in your pocket while you enjoy the most sticky and potent iPhone application available!" the founders say in a statement on their Web site.
Here's how it works. The application displays an interactive map dotted with doctors who can prescribe medicinal marijuana treatment for their patients.
It also shows -- after, presumably, users have procured prescriptions -- the medicinal marijuana suppliers within the users' vicinity. And, what's more, the application includes a database of lawyers who specialize in marijuana-related cases, in should users encounter skeptical local authorities.
To help with grassroots media campaigning, the developers also say they will donate 50 cents for every "Cannabis" purchase to a non-profit reform fund, which they say will be set up once the application reaches 1,000 subscriptions.
Just remember -- Cannabis only works in states where marijuana has been legalized, so if you've scored tickets to a Grateful Dead show in, say, Alabama, don't expect Cannabis to help you score anything else.
Craving Pizza? Just Download the App
In a move sure to thrill its laziest customers, Pizza Hut unveiled recently its new iPhone application that allows users to order pizza without so much as dialing a number. Simply type in your order, then sit back and wait until it arrives.
For those bored with the traditional methods of ordering pizza, the app also has some unconventional tools. If you want extra sauce on your wings, for instance, you shake the phone like a bottle.
And, for those who find ordering pizza too sober a task, the app comes with a racing game named "Hut Racer."
Pizza Hut hopes the app will appeal to customers who rely on their iPhones, said Brian Niccol, Pizza Hut's chief marketing officer.
"As more of our customers are integrating the iPhone and iPod touch into their everyday lives, Pizza Hut wants to be right there with them," Niccol said in a statement. "As a longtime category leader in innovation, creating an App Store application is just one more way we are helping customers place orders in a way that best fits their mobile lifestyle."
Hard of Hearing? Just Grab Your iPhone
People don't normally equate the iPhone with medical innovation, but with the June release of an application that doubles as a hearing aid, they may have to reconsider.
The application, which is called soundAMP, is made by Ginger Labs, a California-based software applications developer, and is available in the iTunes store for $9.99.
Though it's not an actual hearing aid, soundAMP achieves a similar effect. Users just launch the application and then plug in a pair of earphones. The application takes in sound from a microphone (be it built-in, in a headset or from elsewhere) and then amplifies and filters it.
Then you can adjust the volume to your liking with a slider on the touchscreen. You also can replay five or 30 seconds by tapping the appropriate button on the screen.
Hearing aids often may be associated with the more mature, but soundAMP's developers insist their product is age neutral -- of equal value to the octogenarian hard of hearing and the college student stuck in the back of a large lecture class.
(As a caveat, if you really are losing your hearing, you should probably visit a doctor -- soundAMP may be novel, but medically certified it is not.)
RunPee Helps Moviegoers With Bathroom Breaks
Soda. Coffee. Water. Next time to you go to the movies, chug 'em all down.
As long as you have a new iPhone app by your side, you'll know when you can escape to the bathroom without missing the best parts.
Approved by Apple's App store in early July, RunPee (yes, really) promises to be the small-bladdered moviegoer's best friend.
The application features all the movies currently playing in theaters and tells users approximately how far into the movie each "pee time" begins, the cue line to listen for and even what they've missed. (When you're on your way back to your seat, you can hit a button to unscramble text that provides a short synopsis.)
"The idea came from watching King Kong the re-make in 2005," said Dan Florio, RunPee's creator, referring to Peter Jackson's marathon three-hour blockbuster. Throughout much of the movie, he said, he was desperate to relieve himself.
"I kept thinking, I wish they would just kill this ape so that I could get to the men's room," he said.
Like a good fan, he waited until the end, but not without noting a good three-minute sequence he could have done without.
"I just could have gone to the men's room during the scene and I could have enjoyed the end of the movie and the movie would have been better," the Orlando, Fla. developer said.
When he walked out of the theater and saw the lines of people waiting to get into the theater, he wanted to share his secret. But being a bit bashful, he kept it to himself.
The idea stayed in remission until August 2008, when he launched RunPee.com.
He said he's watched about 80 percent of the movies to scout out the best "pee times," but added his family has helped. And anyone who's interested can submit ideas to the site.
In January of this year, he partnered with brothers John and Sam Shahidi, and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jordan Palmer, to work on the iPhone app. Download figures aren't available yet, but Florio said traffic to the site has jumped from about 30 unique visitors a day last year to about 3,500 visitors a day.
Although the app is only available for iPhone owners in the U.S., John Shahidi said the plan is to expand to India, China and Australia.
Dunkin' Donuts Goes High-Tech
Thanks to the iPhone, coffee runs are now easier than ever.
In June, Dunkin' Donuts launched an application for the iPhone and Web that helps organize and automate group orders.
Using their computers and mobile devices, customers can initiate orders through 'Dunkin' Run' and alert friends and colleagues that they are willing to be the "Runner."
Each member of the group can add their order to the list and then the Runner can print the choices or use the iPhone to create a checklist so that when they get to the store, they don't miss anyone's order. The app doesn't yet transmit the order to the local donut shop.
"We conceived of Dunkin' Run as a social application that helps hard-working Americans stay slightly more productive," said Baba Shetty, Hill Holliday's Chief Media Officer. "It's based on the idea of reciprocity -- I'll get your coffee today and hopefully you'll get mine tomorrow -- in a way that perfectly complements the 'we're in it together' ethos of the Dunkin' Donuts brand."
Smart Phone Applications Keep You in Check
Booty Caller
So you're late again. You're a woman with a busy career but you're newly married and you have hopes for a family, too.
You're trying to get to a meeting when you hear the familiar ping of your cell phone, telling you a text message has arrived.
You open it: "Your fertile window opens today and lasts five more days," it says. "Stress can get in the way of conception, so relax and get a massage, meditate or take a yoga class."
The text you just received is from -- yes, this is its real name -- Booty Caller. The app is free, offered by a parenting Web site called BabyCenter.com.
Do you really want a text to remind you this might be a good time for sex? It may not be your idea of spontaneous fun, but its makers say it may well help you squeeze some fun -- and a new baby as well -- into an overscheduled life.
"Booty Caller is definitely a sign of the times," Linda Murray, the editor-in-chief of BabyCenter.com, wrote in an e-mail. Her site, she said, "set out to create a tool that would provide fertility information as well as tips on getting pregnant in fun, digestible text messages."
Look around -- through magazines, at store displays, on kids' T-shirts -- and you may see small, square black-and-white patches that remind you of bar codes. They serve much the same purpose. The idea comes from Scanbuy, a New York firm that hopes the little so-called EZcodes will become ubiquitous.
"We've been at it for a while," said Jonathan Bulkeley, the CEO of Scanbuy Inc., "and the idea's been the same: making it easier for you to navigate using the camera on your phone, instead of the keypad on your phone."
Point your camera phone at, say, an ad for running shoes, and your phone's screen will quickly show you a Web site with specs and user reviews. Point the phone at the code on a kid's shirt, and you're directed straight to his or her Facebook page.
Bulkeley said he can see countless other uses: How about a marker, for instance, on the wrapper for a head of lettuce that tells you how long ago it was picked from the field? He has even seen a code on a grave marker that lets you read about the life of the person to whom you're paying respects.
Picture yourself in the store, intrigued by the pair of running shoes you checked out via Scanbuy. But can you afford them?
Financer is a portable electronic ledger, a way for you to keep track of your money, no matter where you are.
"Financer is one of our most popular applications; and we've seen an increase in demand since the recession," said David Becker, CEO of its maker, dBelement.
The screen of your iPhone takes on the look of a checkbook ledger, the same thing you used a generation ago, except that it does the math for you.
Your account's a bit thin; maybe you'd better hold off on the shoes.
And ... Here's to Your Health
So you can't afford those Nikes? For $1.99 (a lot of these programs have similar prices at the Apple App Store), iFitness will suggest workout routines to keep you in shape. Flabby arms? Touch "arms" on the menu and find the best exercises. Worried about your abs? The program will suggest a routine.
It will also keep you honest. You can keep a log of what you've done, get an idea of your progress and, if you don't like it, you can try Fit Phone.
Or, if you're like so many of us when it comes to New Year's resolutions, you can stop and feel guilty.
In which case, you may want to download ...
Fast-Food Calorie Counter
This is an app for those of us who choose to drown our sorrows with a burger and fries. Tap in any of 4,700 items from 41 chains and it will tell you the calorie count, amount of fat, number of carbs and everything else you need to know to go back and buy those running shoes. It's $2.99 via Apple from Concrete Software.
And last but not least...
Thousands of Apps Make Hectic Life a Whole Lot Easier
Breath-Test Device for your iPod, iPhone
Perhaps one of the more ambitious app/devices out there, iBreath is a breath-test device that attaches to your iPhone or iPod.
Users blow into the iBreath and a readout of their blood-alcohol content appears on the phone's screen.
"All kinds of people are using it," said developer Don Bassler, CEO of David Steele, the iBreath's manufacturer. "Parents of kids, college students, wives for husbands, boyfriends for girlfriends. The demographic starts dubiously as low as 16, but is basically the 18 to 50 crowd."
The iBreath debuted at Christmas and, according to Bassler, the company has sold thousands of the $79.99 devices.
Of course, even though we think these seven apps can go a long way in terms of making a hectic life a bit easier, mentioning these particular apps does not necessarily constitute an endorsement of them.
Each has many competitors, and you're invited to weigh in with suggestions in our comments section. Many apps have features you will love or hate, and the only way to find out for sure is to try them for yourself.
But most of the apps are either free or very cheap, which means a barrier has been crossed. There are a million things you can now do, with very little effort, on what you used to think was only your cell phone.
Unless, of course, you prefer to do them on paper, or a computer, or even -- what a quaint idea -- in the flesh.

12 Aug 17 (Saturday) |
Fantastic day. Great professional organised event.
Really did get a lot out of this. Really want to do it again sooner rather than later. Cheers
I was on family business in Brisbane, and was looking for a quick afternoon fun getaway. The Rally driving completely fit the bill.
It Was awesome.
It was a great time well organised and went like clockwork thanks
It was disappointing that the Evo was unavailable as I was looking forward to driving it. It was great to meet some of the people I had heard about and read about. The team were very approachable and generally keen to have a chat about their experiences. Would love to do it again some time and would recommend the experience to anybody.
An amazing day! The guys there were really helpful and informative and actually taught the technical parts to making the car go as fast as it can and what we were doing wrong. Really friendly and funny - we could go back and do it ten times over!
I love Adrenalin as I am a firm believer in experiences over material things.
Awesome day, great fun. We'll be back some time!!!
very worth while expierience and reall high dose of adrenalin few of my friends are already trying to organise a time for a group day out...
Sessions start at 8:30 AM.
Spectators are welcome to come along.
In the unlikely event that any car is damaged, and it is not safe or possible to continue, every reasonable effort will be made to provide a back up vehicle. The back up vehicle will be another rally car and may be two-wheel drive.

Disability and the professional accountant : insights from oral histories

This paper provides an analysis of the typical modes of ideology in introductory financial accounting textbooks and training materials. Drawing on Thompson's (1990) schema concerning the typical linguistic modes through which ideology operates, this research suggests that the operation of ideology is apparent within educational accounting texts, with particular strategies being more evident than others: in particular, the strategies of universalization, narrativization, rationalization and naturalization. Given the predominantly technical nature of introductory financial accounting textbooks and training manuals, the modes of ideology identified in the texts were often quite subtle; more specifically, the ideological characteristics displayed in each of the six texts analysed were often expressions of implicit or taken-for-granted assumptions.

After trading away Max Unger and allowing former first round pick James Carpenter to skip town in free agency, the Seahawks knew the offensive line would be an issue heading into the 2015 season. That's why the club invested three draft picks on blockers.
The selection who appeared the most pro-ready - guard Mark Glowinski - may get the first extended opportunity of his NFL career to prove it Sunday with head coach Pete Carroll admitting that the rookie from West Virginia could see significant action against the Arizona Cardinals with normal starting right guard J.R. Sweezy out nursing a concussion.
Though Carroll refused to name a starter - perhaps holding out hope that Russell Okung would be able to return from a calf strain and play at left tackle, moving "swingman" Alvin Bailey back to guard - he was excited about the possibility of Glowinski playing.
"He hasn't had a lot of game time work since preseason," Carroll replied when asked if Glowinski was ready. "We do see him every day. He's a real battler and he's a very technique sound kid and he's got a chance to help us. I'm really excited about him getting a chance to play. This is a great opportunity for him, it's also a great opportunity for us to see him under these kinds of conditions. It's the maximum challenge for the guy, but he's tough and he's done a lot of cool things since he's been here. It's his turn. We're really looking forward to seeing him play."
Glowinski has been active in nine games so far as a rookie, though he's seen little actual playing time with the offense.
Glowinski signed with West Virginia Mountaineers as a highly regarded tackle following two seasons starting at Lackawanna College. Shortly after joining West Virginia, Glowinski was slid inside to guard, where his tenacity, strength and length helped him enjoy immediate success - something he continued at the East-West Shrine Game despite being moved back outside to right tackle, at times. Glowinski possesses good initial quickness off the ball and has the lateral agility to handle blocking in space. His best asset may be his hand placement and upper body strength. He can lock on and control defenders and is powerful enough to shove them out of the way even when out of position - at least at the collegiate level.
It is a combination of size (6-5, 310 pounds), athleticism and position versatility which likely attracted the Seahawks in the first place.
While Carroll and the Seahawks can be excited about Glowinski's upside, for a team attempting to build momentum prior to the playoffs, the changing 40% of its offensive line is hardly ideal.
Perhaps most disconcerting is that Sweezy is out indefinitely. The Seahawks only noticed him looking "different" this week and there is no telling if Sweezy will be able to make it out of the concussion protocol in time for the wild card round or potentially future games this season, should Seattle qualify.
"It was Wednesday's walkthrough," Carroll said when asked when Sweezy's condition was first noticed. "I was watching him and he looked like he was, he just looked different. I asked trainers to take a look at him and we started talking to him and he definitely had concussion symptoms that he didn't recognize and he didn't report. We missed it on Monday, and Tuesday we didn't see him. As soon as he got here and ran around with him, we could tell something was up, so we had to dump him right into the protocol and see what we could get done with him. He will not play this week. We'll see what happens next week."
The Seahawks should be confident they can move the ball against the Cardinals. A year ago, despite questions along the offensive line, the Seahawks steamrolled a similar Cardinals defense in Arizona, accounting for a team-record 596 total yards in a 35-6 blowout.

Catalogue information based on the catalogue raisonné by David Cleall. For this and full details of the exhibitions cited, see the links below. The Judgement of Paris, 1933 Oil on canvas, 40.5 cm x 52 cm According to Greek mythology, when Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited to a wedding banquet sponsored by Zeus, the king of the gods, she turned up anyway and threw a golden apple inscribed with the words 'for the fairest'. Three goddesses Hera (the wife of Zeus and queen of heaven), Athena (the goddess of war) and Aphrodite (the goddess of love) claimed the apple, and Zeus delegated the Trojan prince Paris to judge between them. When the goddesses appeared before Paris as he tended his flocks on Mount Ida, he decided for Aphrodite, after she promised him the love of the world's most beautiful woman, Helen, wife of King Menelaus of Sparta. His subsequent taking of Helen led to the Trojan War.

Is there a minimum age to start officiating?
USA Hockey has no minimum or maximum ages for officials. It is highly recommended that officials not work games of their own age classification or higher, regardless of level attained. Generally, officials can successfully officiate as young as age ten years-old. However, some local areas do have minimum age requirements due to their State's specific Child Labor Laws. In this instance, you will need to contact the Local Supervisor of Officials for location-specific information.
What are the registration requirements for the various levels of officiating?
A complete list of registration requirements for each level is listed at the Registration Rules page under the OFFICIALS tab at USAHockey.com.
Can I attend a seminar before registering as an official?
No, starting with 2015-16 Registration all officials must complete Membership Registration prior to completing Seminar Registration. Furthermore, since the registration fee is non-refundable it is strongly encouraged that an official confirms that he can attend a seminar before registering.
How do I get an Official's Application?
USA Hockey offers online registration for all officials. Simply look for the Membership Registration link under the OFFICIALS tab at USAHockey.com. Renewal officials (those registered the prior season) will be sent a reminder postcard for the current season in early August.
Is there a fee involved with the official's application?
The official's registration fee is collected with the application and must be paid when the application is submitted in order for the application to be processed. All revenue generated from the registration fees is used to cover the day-to-day operations the Officiating Program. These include volunteer expenses, seminar expenses, educational materials, printing, postage, and all other expenses incurred to operate the program.
In addition, some districts or affiliates also charge a nominal Affiliate Fee in order to fund special programs and local operating expenses. These fees may be collected as part of the USA Hockey application process and then are distributed to the district or affiliate level.
USA Hockey Officiating Program Registration Fees
(Does not include local Affiliate Fees or Local Officiating Association Fees)
How do I find out if my Local Affiliate charges an annual registration fee?
Not all Local Affiliates (your local governing body) charge a fee each year; however this question can be answered by your USA Hockey Local Supervisor of Officials or District Referee-in-Chief.
It looks as if I'm paying two registration fees to be an official. How do the fees break down?
USA Hockey's officiating registration fee is considered a separate entity from that of a player and/or coach. Whereas an adult player can also coach under the same registration fee, the official's fee is separate and must be paid by each official. In the case of the adult player, USA Hockey utilizes the joint fee for them to coach as a means to encourage these adult players to volunteer their time as a youth hockey coach. This is not done on the officiating side for a variety of reasons.
Maintaining a separate fee actually assists us in being able to keep our costs down. USA Hockey purchases insurance coverage for each member type, recognizing that the insurance risk for a player/coach is going to be different than it is for an official. By doing so, our insurance costs are actually held to a minimum. Instead of purchasing a blanket insurance program that covers all inherent risks for all member types at a greater cost to all members, we can be more specific and actually purchase coverage that accounts for the specific risk of each member type.
In addition, the Officiating Education Program is a distinct program that has several benefits included as part of the registration process. These include the Rule Book/Case Book, Officiating Manuals, the majority of the expenses for the officiating seminar, and administrative costs that are specific to the conducting of our direct registration program, including testing and distribution of materials.
In contrast, there is an additional fee charged by the Coaching Education Program for clinic attendance and many of the coaching manuals would also need to be purchased. Finally, in many cases, the officials are perceived to be the only people involved who are getting paid, so the USA Hockey Board of Directors feel strongly that the cost of our Education program should be funded strictly by our officiating membership, hence the independent registration fee and program.
How do I find out who is my Local Supervisor of Officials?
The Officiating Program Directory is located at USAHockey.com using the District Directory link appearing under the OFFICIALS tab. Once you arrive at the Directory page, select your USA Hockey District using the appropriate links and find your District RIC and Local Supervisor contact information at your district page.
How do I get my Open Book Rules Exam?
The Open Book Rules Exam can accessed online at the Officials website 24-hours after online registration. Information about completing the Open Book Rules Exam will be sent to you from the National Office upon receipt of your application and registration fee. For those who register online, an email will be sent with information on how to complete the online Open Book Exam.
It is strongly recommended that all officials use the current USA Hockey Playing Rules & Casebook and Basic Officiating Manual to complete the Open Book Exam.
Where can I get a Rule Book and Officiating Manual?
All new officials will receive a copy of the USA Hockey Playing Rules & Casebook and red Basic Officiating Manual in the mail within a few days of their processed registration. Since the USA Hockey Rule Book is a four-year rule book all returning officials will receive a copy of the Playing Rules & Casebook every four years (after each rule change process).
The Playing Rules and Casebook and all Officiating Manuals are also available for (PDF) download online at the Rule Book & Resources page under the OFFICIALS tab.
A mobile friendly version of the USA Hockey Rule Book & Casebook is available by entering USAHockeyRuleBook.com into your computer, tablet, or smart-phone web browser.
How long do I have to take the Open Book Rules Exam?
The Open Book Rules Exam is designed to be completed in a time frame convenient to the official. An official may sign into their exam and complete the entire exam in one day, or use the "save" feature to save their progress over a few days.
Please understand that new officials will not be eligible to work games until they have completed the exam and attended a seminar. Furthermore, a returning officials' previous year registration expires on November 30th of the new season, so they will need to complete the exam in a timely manner in order to continue to work games. Ultimately, USA Hockey will accept Open Book Exams up until early May of the current season at which point the registration season closes.
Do I have to complete the Open Book Exam prior to attending my seminar?
It is strongly recommended that all officials attend their seminar prior to completing their Open Book Exam. We recommend all officials to sign into their exam and printing a hard-copy before attending their seminar. That way they may review the questions and ask the seminar instructors for assistance with any question they don't understand.
Where do I find out about the seminars in my area?
Since seminar attendance is one of the registration requirements, USA Hockey conducts several hundred seminars throughout the country each season. You can obtain seminar information by clicking the Seminar Registration link under the OFFICIALS tab at USAHockey.com and then use the search fields at the Seminars page to find a seminar in your area. Please Note: You are not required to attend a seminar in you local area. An official may attend any accredited seminar in any District and still get credit toward their membership.
Sometimes, a local area may add a late-scheduled seminar in order to accommodate officials who did not attend any previously scheduled seminars. These seminars may not appear on the schedule or be posted on the website. In this instance, you may wish to contact your Local Supervisor of Officials to inquire about a late scheduled seminar in your area.
How do I get credit for attending the seminar?
Depending on where you live, each official who attends a USA Hockey seminar must complete Seminar Registration and check-in at the seminar they attend. Seminar attendance information is then sent to the National Office where your attendance is matched up with your registration record.
If Pre-Registration is not required in your area, it is imperative that each official "check-in" at the seminar. Furthermore, they may be required to sign an Attendance Form. Officials who do not go through the required seminar "check-in" process may not be given credit for seminar attendance.
What should I bring to the seminar?
For the Classroom Session, all officials should bring a pen, notebook, USA Hockey Rulebook, and pencil (for the Closed Book Exam). While at the seminar, make sure you record the contact information for your Local Supervisor of Officials and Local Assignor for future reference after you complete your registration and are ready to work games.
For the On-Ice Session, all returning officials must wear their full officiating gear. New officials are expected to bring skates, a hockey helmet, and some form of whistle. We do not require full equipment for new officials.
Since most seminars last an entire day, officials may want to pack a lunch unless other arrangements are made.
Where do I take the Closed Book Exam (Levels 2, 3, & 4 only)?
The Closed Book Exams required for Level 2, 3, & 4 applicants will only be administered at the seminar you attend. The exam books and answer sheets will be collected at the seminar and the answer sheets are forwarded to the National Office for grading.
It is imperative that each official take the Closed Book Exam required for the level they registered for. If you submit the incorrect exam it will impact what level your registration is completed at.
What if I choose not to take a Closed Book Exam?
Provided you have completed all other registration requirements, you will be issued a Card and Crest for Level 1 as you have met the requirements to be a Level 1 official.
What is Online Education?
Online Education is a series of video modules that uses videos examples, animation, content slides, and quizes to help educate our 25,000 officials across the country.
Access to the modules will be given 24-hours after membership registration is completed. Once accessed, all officials are encouraged to read the directions at the homepage carefully.
At the end of each module, there is a short quiz to complete. If the official does not answer the required number of questions correctly the official must complete the entire module again.
Online Education requires both Required and Elective-Menu courses be completed, and an official will not receive credit for Online Education until all course categories are completed.
Once completed, the official will still have access to the modules to continue/review educational material through the season.
When will I receive my Card and Crest?
Once the National Office has received your,
your Card and Crest will be issued to you and you will be eligible to work games.
What do I have to do to make sure I am receiving emails such as registration conformation and exam results?
All of the emails sent from USA Hockey come from a server with the address of @usahockey.org. You need to enter in a valid email address such as firstname.lastname@example.com into your email address list and that will let your spam filters know it is an "accepted" address.
Naturally, keeping your contact information current and accurate in the USA Hockey database is also critical to successful communication. To update your personal information please contact email@example.com or call the Ice Hockey Officiating Department at the National Office (719-576-8724)
There is a lot of stuff going to and from the National Office. How long does it take to receive materials?
Generally, we are simply at the mercy of the U.S. Postal Service. Once the material is received at the National Office, it will be processed and the appropriate materials will be sent out within 2 business days. Furthermore, the National Office has little control over is the timeliness of receiving seminar attendance and Closed Book Exam information from our volunteer Seminar Coordinators. They are encouraged to submit the seminar materials within a day of the seminar, but sometimes it takes a little longer to reach the National Office.
Of course submitting your Membership Registration, Open Book Exam, Online Education Modules, and SafeSport training online should speed up this process as we are not counting on the Post Office for obtaining some of the necessary information.
Is there a way I can check my registration status?
All USA Hockey Officials may check their registration status online at USAHockey.com.
Before this can be done, the official must create an online profile for themselves at the National Website. To do this the official must start at the USAHockey.com homepage. Use the Registration Status link under the OFFICIALS tab to access the Registration Status page. Once at the page, read all information carefully and scroll down to the sign-in area to "create a profile".
Note: This process simply creates an online website profile (similar to Starbucks or Marriott hotels) and it does not register you as a member with USA Hockey. You will pay no registration fee and your membership information will not be affected.
Note 2: In order for your USA Hockey.com Profile to extract accurate information from the Officiating Program Membership Database, your online profile….
must match your Membership Registration information exactly. If you registered with USA Hockey as Michael O'Toole, you must create your online profile with the same full-name (not Mike or OToole).
Once your USAHockey.com online profile is created, using the Registration Status link under the OFFICIALS tab will will lead you to the IntraLearn Homepage. Selecting Registration Status will lead you to a page that will provide your USA Hockey officials number, current year exam scores, seminar information, and 10-year registration history. If a piece of your registration (Seminar or Closed Book Exam) is missing at the website it means the National Office has not recieved it yet; please contact your seminar coordinator to verify its shipment.
Note 3: Due to Federal COPPA (Child Online Privacy Protection Act) Laws, we are not allowed to receive personal information via the internet from children under the age of thirteen. Therefore, officials under thirteen years of age cannot create an online USAHockey.com profile. If your son or daughter is too young to create a profile, you may check their registration status by contacting your District Referee-in-Chief or the National Office.
Now that I have my Card and Crest and I am eligible to officiate, how do I get games?
First, you should be aware that simply completing registration with USA Hockey is not a guarantee of game assignments. Although we highly encourage all of our Local Supervisors and Local Assignors to involve every eligible official in the assignment process, as Independent Contractor officials it is still up to the individual official to solicit game assignments from assignors, leagues, or affiliate governing bodies.
Contact your Local Supervisor of Officials or Local Assignor and let them know you are now eligible to work games and when you are available. If possible, identify a more experienced official in your local area to serve as a mentor and who can also help you get games. Once you get that first assignment, go out and give 100% to do your best and the rest will take care of itself.
Does USA Hockey have any assignment guidelines? What levels of games is each respective level of official eligible to work?
Yes, USA Hockey has established some assignment guidelines. But they are just that – guidelines. There may always be some unusual circumstances or emergency situations where it may be impossible to follow the specific guidelines. In this instance, the game(s) should be played as long as there are capable and completely registered officials available to work.
USA Hockey strongly recommends that our younger officials only work age classifications that are at least one age group younger than what they would currently be playing at. The remainder of the assignment guidelines are available posted below:
Age Class | Girls' Women's | Referee | Tier I T-II | Linesman | Tier I T-II | Referee | Tier I T-II |
Adult Elite | Level 4 | Level 3 | Level 3 | ||||
Adult US | Level 4 | Level 3 | Level 3 | ||||
Adult No-Check | Women's Adult | Level 3 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |||
Junior A | Level 4 | Level 3 | Level 4 | ||||
Junior B | Level 4 | Level 3 | Level 4 | ||||
Junior C | Level 3 | Level 3 | Level 3 | ||||
HS Varsity | Level 3 | Level 3 | Level 3 | ||||

8 & Under | 8 & Under | Level 1 | Level 1 | Level 1 | Level 1 | Level 1 | Level 1 |
NOTE: To be eligible to officiate in any State, Regional or National Championships, an official must be completely registered on or before December 31 of the current season. If possible, only level 4 officials will be assigned to work National Championships.
As a USA Hockey registered official, am I eligible to work non-sanctioned games?
We take pride in the USA Hockey Officiating Program. In fact, we are the only officiating organization that exists in North America that offers extensive, formalized training and education to its members. Whenever you officiate a non-sanctioned game, the players of that league are directly benefiting from the USA Hockey Officiating Program, at no cost to them. This is highly unfair to the 40,000+ teams who do register with USA Hockey.
Although we highly encourage officials to work only USA Hockey sanctioned games, there remains a number of officials who work non-sanctioned games, particularly at the Adult age classifications. Any questions regarding the registration of a team with USA Hockey should be addressed to your District or Affiliate Registrar. If you officiate in a game that is not sanctioned by USA Hockey (NCAA, National Federation of High Schools, and Minor Professional leagues are affiliate members of USA Hockey and may provide separate insurance coverage for their officials), please be aware that:
1. You are not covered under the USA Hockey insurance plan, while officiating these games.
2. You are prohibited from wearing the USA Hockey officials crest.
3. You may face repercussions from the USA Hockey Affiliate Association.
Please help us in our endeavors to encourage these teams into becoming registered with USA Hockey by not officiating non-sanctioned games. Thank you.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact your Local Supervisor of Officials. Thank you for your interest in hockey and happy officiating!
