Continuing Education is essential for referees

Referees - Being a referee means a commitment to life-long learning so we do our best job on the field of play as guardians of the game we all love.

Continuing education is required for all Regional referees each license year. In addition, qualifying for grassroots premium pay levels in Colorado requires at least 5 hours of continuing education.

Referees are ultimately responsible for tracking their continuing education hours. As you complete training hours, use this form to track your progress.

When you submit your recertification each year, if you have met the premium pay guidelines, you may submit this form to request your premium pay for that registration year.
