Breed Education Coordinator

The Kennel Club requires all breeds to appoint one person as a Breed Education Coordinator. The role of this person is to liaise between the KC and each of the clubs for that breed: many breeds have more than one club but there can only be one BEC per breed. The BEC is responsible for overseeing the breed’s programme for educating its judges under the Judges Competency Framework (JCF) and for all other breed educational opportunities, i.e. breed appreciation days, multiple-choice breed standard exam, mentors, observers, as well as the assessors and exhibits for the subsequent Kennel Club-organised breed competence assessments.
