Texas NAWGJ supporting judges education-
The 2010 Texas Judges Cup was extremely successful. Here is one way TxNAWGJ will be able to help judges with their educational expenses:.
- This year all current NAWGJ judges volunteering at 2010 Judges Cup will have their memberships renewed with the first session worked. After that, each session worked receives 1 Education Point.
These benefits are for current active Texas NAWGJ members only. (Current meaning on the NAWGJ membership list dated 9/5/10 (or validated membership dated Sept. 30, 2010 or before), Active meaning having fulfilled CPE requirements)
Receipts are REQUIRED for any reimbursements. (See "Points for Education" below)

Points for Education This is our fourth year for the "Points for Education System" for Texas judges. Judges are able to earn "points" that can be used for the purchase of the Optional and/or Compulsory Code or other educational materials from USAG, or any of the many items from the NAWGJ Library, the NAWGJ uniform, judge certification testing fees, Safety Certification fee, NAWGJ membership, USAG membership, USAG Background check, and Sanctioned Clinic fees including registration, airfare, hotel and gas expenses. This general points allowance is for TxNAWGJ Professional members that are active and CPE compliant.
Points earned at Judges Cup will be recorded by assigning officials and forwarded to State Judging Director: Carol Robuck Points will be redeemed by submitting a receipt to the SJD for items purchased as stated above. SJD will then reimburse judge. The deadline for redeeming points earned will be 10 days after last day of GAT 2011 (Receipts Must be received by September 15, 2011). GAT signifies the end of the "Points" year. Points earned after GAT may be used on expenses for the new year and cannot be used for "last year's" expenses. |
