The tasks of the training and examination department

The ÖRC training department is responsible for the training of

• ÖRC course instructors
• ÖKV trainers
• ÖRC judges (GAP, RBP, SLP)
• ÖRC judges

The ÖRC training department generally supports examination regulations that provide for tests and competitions that promote the natural abilities of the retrievers or that are expected by the public (e.g. dog license).

Note: If other dog sports are practiced, the education and training is to be organized independently by the regional groups and their training centers (local groups). The approval of examinations and tournaments must also be obtained here from the ÖRC training department at the ÖKV.

Other tasks are

• Support of the regional groups and their training centers / training groups if necessary
• Interface to ÖKV (performance department)
