EOI for CE/SSTAs to Deliver EA Coach Education Activities in 2021

Equestrian Australia (EA) is seeking Expressions of Interest (EOIs) from current Coach Educators (CEs) and Skill Specific Trainer/Assessors (SSTAs) who may be interested in delivering coach education or assessment activities on behalf of EA during the 2021 calendar year.

Whilst this EOI is being coordinated by EA, the register will be made available to State Branches and National Discipline Committees if requested.

This is not changing the way we operate. CE/SSTAs can operate as they currently do. The EOI applies to anything that is organised or coordinated by EA.

If the EOI is successful, EA will implement this process on an annual basis to create greater efficiencies and provide the necessary transparency required when organising coaching activities, education or assessment days. This includes, but is not limited to the following activities that may be coordinated by EA or in partnership with State Branches/National Discipline Committees:   

• Intensive coach workshops
• Intensive coach assessment clinics
• SSTA accreditation courses
• CE accreditation courses
• Coach Updates
• CE/SSTA Updates
• Marking of Level 2 Theory exams
• Discipline-specific coach education/assessment days
• Level 3 course coordination/presentation/assessment

The EOI can be completed on Survey Monkey via this link https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ZNN62GG.

The EOI will be open until midnight Sunday 13 December 2020.

Please note:
* SSTAs have been included in this EOI as they may be interested in working with EA or State Branches/National Discipline Committees to assess Introductory Horse Management or Introductory Riding at intensive assessment clinics (as an example)
* Demonstrating interest does not guarantee CE/SSTAs will be engaged to deliver these activities nor does it mean they are committing to be available when these opportunities are scheduled  
* Anyone who is engaged to work with EA (or State Branches/National Discipline Committees using the register) will be assessed for suitability against the specific requirements of the course/assessment/education day etc that is being organised
* It is assumed payment will be offered to those who deliver these activities, but payment will be determined based on the activity, time required, location etc
