Badminton Europe is happy to invite its Member Associations to attend the first BEC National Administrators’ and Level 1 Event Management-courses – both part of BEC’s new support programme, BASIS.
The two newly developed courses, held 24-26 November 2017 in Prague (Czech Republic), alongside the 2017 European U17 Championships, are both part of the newly established “Badminton Administrative Support and Information Sharing”-programme project, also known as BASIS. BASIS has been developed by the Member Structure Commission in conjunction with the BEC Office. It was initiated with the overriding objective to help the Member Associations (MAs) develop in the area of administration and event management.
The two courses are furthermore part of the Badminton World Federation’s (BWF) educational programme, designed by the World Academy of Sport (WAoS).
National Administrators’ Course
The National Administrators’ Course is aimed at individuals, who perform an administrative function in their federation. Participants can, among others, expect to learn more about constitution and governance, strategic and operational planning, organizational development and administration.
Level 1 Event Management Course
The Level 1 Event Management course is aimed at event organisers wishing to stage international events at Continental level (currently known as Level 4-tournaments). At this course, the key points of this course will be: events and competition structures; the key considerations in event management; the foundations of a Local Organising Committee; planning and delivering events; event evaluation and reporting process.
It is the intention that BASIS will be a ‘demand led’ programme i.e. the Member Structure Commission and the BEC Office will develop support levels for BASIS that the MAs report that they need or want. It is intended that the support levels will be reviewed and updated on an annual basis.
