Afternoon session starts 1.30 pm and is expected to finish at approx. 3.15 pm

This afternoon will be an assessment process for judges and is essential as part of the criteria for giving CC's in the breed and assesses the candidate's competence in judging a class of dogs. Candidates will be asked to judge 5 Cairns and  ‘place’ them in order of merit, as though judged as a Class and will be asked to write their decision on their placings. This is a closed book assessment process, i.e. no other documentation may be referred to. Dogs will NOT be ‘pulled out’.  Placings are made on paper only.

 

The documentation from the candidates will be considered by 3 Kennel Club Assessors.  Candidates will receive their results within 2 weeks.  If successful the candidate will be awarded either a Breed Certificate in Judging competence or if the candidate wishes have this treated as one of the assessments needed for progression to the A2 List. No observers allowed.

 

Cost - Midland CTC members - £10, non members - £15
