The USEF/USEA Cross-Country Course Advisor Program is a jointly funded safety and education-based program developed to provide a standard for cross-country courses from the Modified to Advanced levels, throughout the United States. FEI equivalent levels may be inspected as deemed necessary.
Events and Course Designers are selected for visits on a rotating basis, so that each Course Designer at the Modified level and above has the opportunity to work with a Course Advisor within a two to three year cycle. Events may also be selected for the following reasons:
- Change of Course Designer (CD)
- Change of levels offered, such as the addition of a Modified, Preliminary, Intermediate, or Advanced course
- Upon recommendation by a Technical Delegate (TD) in a report
- Rider Reports or Confidential Competition and Licensed Officials Evaluations
- At the recommendation of a Course Advisor
- At the request of a event or course designer
2024 Course Advisors are:
- Derek di Grazia
- David O'Connor
- Jay Hambly
- Captain Mark Phillips
