Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 28, 2019 Journalists Share Posted January 28, 2019 The Association of Racing Commissioners International (ARCI) and the University of Arizona’s Racetrack Industry Program (RTIP) will launch an educational program for horse racing investigators employed by racing commissions and tracks beginning in the third quarter of 2019. The course is modeled after the ROAP accreditation program. “The RTIP welcomes the opportunity to partner with the ARCI in ensuring that those seeking employment as racing investigators have the necessary educational foundation to perform effectively,” said Wendy Davis, Director of the Racetrack Industry Program. Ed Martin, ARCI President, added, “As one who recruited and built a staff of effective racing investigators, I can attest that a good investigator not only must have investigatory and interrogation skills, but also have a keen understanding of how racing works, as well as a feel for the backstretch community and what to take notice of.” The program’s steering committee consists of Davis and RCI Board Members Tom Sage and John Wayne, both seasoned investigators. The date for the first certificate program has yet to be finalized. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
