\n**Target audience of the seminar
\nIt is our priority for
this year to increase a number of European female arbiters and especially
in the countries with very low coverage. Our commission has prepared an ov
erview of the current status of female NA arbiters in Europe based on the
data provided by the Fide Arbiter’s office. This seminar shall be targeted
on NA female arbiters to get their FA arbiter’s title.
\nInvitations
will be sent to targeted federations by our Commission.
\nIf we have
few places available because of no response or no interest from the parti
cular federation\, we will provide them to public (only women) on base „fi
rst come\, first serve.“
