Welcome to the Foundation Course for FEI Vaulting Officials. The following online programme aims to prepare you for FEI officiating in the sport of Vaulting. It will lead you through education that is broken into five sections as follows:

  • The FEI – structure, decision-making and important policies
  • FEI Vaulting – evolution of the sport
  • FEI Officials – roles and responsibilities
  • FEI Events – competitions
  • FEI Regulations – rules and statutes

As you progress through the programme there are a number of learning control quizzes built in to support your progress.

The FEI Vaulting Technical Committee’s objective is to ensure the highest standards for the education of Officials and thereby the development of the sport.
