SCPF Judging / Appraisal

These pages are about Judging in SCPF. Hopefully here you will find what you need in relation to judging.

News in Brief – October 2023

  • New Guidance Papers: We have just published new guidance in a number of areas, notably AI (Artificial Intelligence), Image Titles, and others in the process of writing. Please do check continually for the guidance we provide here, which is for appraisers and clubs alike.
  • New Appraisal Training – Expressions of Interest please. We are inviting new expressions of interest for our Judging / Appraisal Training, for which there will be a new run soon. We are particularly short of cover in the east of our region, so attention West Sussex and east Hants clubs – this is in your interests!
  • Providing Feedback – a reminder please for clubs to follow our Feedback Guide (V1.5 – October 2022) when providing feedback on judging. We are still receiving feedback that is either too analytical or a collection of individual observations that sometimes conflict. In either case it requires clarification and and a lot of work before this feedback can be passed on, especially to new judges.
