Officiating is "always" local, just like politics. My question was not about what people do on this forum specifically. I was just wondering what happens if you pass this course? That to me is a fair question as most of us are not licensed directly by the National Federation. I am assuming that many people can use this course for some special state classification that they would work under. Or they could be like my states, it serves no benefit other than personal information that you may or may not have heard before.

Agree.

I'm going to look at it for curiosity reasons, review, and because I like anything related to officiating. Even with forty years on the court I can always learn something new, or learn a new way to teach something.

Less experienced officials may get more out of it.

In regard to "local", I have to be careful about mechanics because IAABO mechanics (used here in 100% IAABO Connecticut) will be a little different than NFHS mechanics, no problem as long as I realize that going in.

It isn't about passing the course. It is about having access to the content and making use of what it offers.

Well there was a time in my state if you passed this test it could be used as going to a clinic for licensing purposes. I do not believe that is the case anymore. So it did matter if you passed the course, like most training in many industries (mine too). I think I took it once and it was very generic at the time. I might just take it again just to see, but the NF loves to not give much detail. Oh well.
