This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to conduct procedures related to pre- and post-race checks of written documentation and audio or visual records to analyse race performance.

The unit applies to individuals who determine, collect and organise information to effectively analyse race performances in greyhound, harness or thoroughbred codes of racing.

Greyhound, harness and thoroughbred racing are strictly regulated throughout Australia. All stewards are employed by the relevant controlling body or Principal Racing Authority (PRA). Users are advised to check with the relevant authority for requirements.

No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
