Education modules

The CSC offers industry development seminars throughout the year and has developed a range of online education modules that provide contestants and industry participants with essential combat sports information. 


Registration requirements

Anyone wanting to register with the CSC is required to complete the online education unit applicable to their registration category (Module 1) and the combat sports concussion course (Module 2). Registration will remain pending and will not be finalised until both modules have been completed in full. Parents or guardians of applicants under 18 years of age must also complete the online education modules.

Module 1: Select you your registration category

Module 2: Combat sports concussion course

In collaboration with Connectivity the CSC presents a 45 minute interactive (self-paced) online course to educate contestants and industry participants to recognise and manage concussion in combat sports. This course additionally provides guidance on the CSC Hard Bout Card, concussion clearance requirements and return to sport protocols. 

You will need to enrol into the course by first creating an account on the Connectivity landing page. Please ensure you enrol with the same name and email as your CSC registration details, to ensure your course completion is recorded correctly.

Officals theory quizzes

Referees, judges and timekeepers are required to complete a quiz for each nominated combat sport registered into. These quizzes are based on the relevant CSC Contest Rules. All officials are expected to have a theoretical understanding across all three roles (referee, judge and timekeeper) regardless of nominated role. 

Once you have submitted your registration application to become an official, contact us to arrange to do your quiz.
