Arbiter "Experience" Points

Post by John Upham » Wed May 01, 2024 11:12 am

I have asked the following question of the ECF but have yet to receive a response. Perhaps you can help?

Apparently
FIDE Arbiter (FA): A FIDE Arbiter is an arbiter who has earned at least 60 experience points and has been certified by FIDE. To become an International Arbiter (IA), an FA must earn at least 100 additional experience points, for a total of 160.
How may one discover their accumulated total of arbiter experience points and track the value in time?

Many thanks for your help.

The only place I can find reference to experience points is https://www.zugzwang.in/blog/2023/3/22/ ... de-arbiter. There is nothing in the FIDE Regs that I can find.

Where did you find the statement you quote, bit meaningless without attribution.
