USA Triathlon presents organized educational opportunities for race directors each year. Included in these programs are the Race Director Certification Course and the annual Race Director Symposium (formerly Race Director Conference).
Race Director Certification
Race director certification is a 16-hour education course that addresses the latest in race directing methods, insurance/risk management trends, and USAT sanctioning compliance. This program is extremely valuable to both new and seasoned event directors.

Recertification Guidelines
Every USAT Certified Race Director has to make one of three choices about continuing in the program:
1. Continue to advance within the program by moving to Level 2
2. Continue within the program without advancing via Recertification
3. Discontinue participation in the program
The first two choices require action. Choice 3 assumes no activity and the formerly certified participant will be dropped from the formal program. Their records will be maintained in the USAT archives.

Certified Race Directors have completed a 16-hour educational training class. This course includes information on the latest in race directing methods, insurance/risk management trends, and USA Triathlon sanctioning compliance. While the certification course is not mandatory for race directors who sanction their events with USA Triathlon, the program is extremely valuable to both new and seasoned event directors. Completing the Race Director Certification course shows that an event director is mindful of keeping in touch with the latest industry trends that will in turn allow better events to be produced. While this course is not required for everyone, athletes should expect more from race directors who are certified.
