training new officials

[scrounge]

There's a split here between ongoing training and initial entry training. Ongoing training is done by associations and is generally just part of the dues ($15-25 a year or so). 4 association meetings are required for license maintenance but you're certainly free to go to as many as you'd like. Initial training is a state-licensed class, offered by a number of associations but open to all, not linked to association membership. They generally range from $120-$150.
