Re: [AISdiscuss] JT Handbook Item#2, Plus

Greetings All,

    All of our Ballot voting judges should be required to meet their garden 
judging training requirements by attending garden training given by another 
judge.  Every judge, regardless of their judging experience or longjevity can 
probably learn something from another judge's perspective.

  Also, all judges providing one-on-one garden judging training to 
Apprentices should be given "credit" for their efforts, but it shouldn't count towards 
their personal in garden training requirements.

   However, a judge who teaches classroom training should get credit towards 
their classroom training requirements.  A judge who teaches in a classroom 
setting probably learns more in their preparation then any of the students will 
learn by just attending.

    Since we never seem to run out of arrogant, blowhards who can't resist 
attacking their fellow judges, it is important that the AIS attend to improving 
the garden judging credentials of all our judges.

Have a Happy!  Brad K
