From the USDF Website: What is the “L” Program?The “L” program offers a comprehensive curriculum created to teach participants and auditors how to evaluate dressage performance at Training through Second Level. What does the “L” stand for in USDF “L” Education Program?The L in USDF “L” Education Program comes from the inception of the program, in the mid-80’s, and means ‘learner.’ As the program has evolved the title has changed to become the USDF “L” Education Program and the “L” lingers as a fun reminder of where it all began. What if I do not want to become a licensed judge, may I still participate in the program?Yes, the “L” Program is not just for those who want to become licensed dressage judges. The program’s intent is to give competitors, trainers, and instructors a broader insight into the evaluative techniques of judging dressage, qualify individuals to officiate at schooling shows, serve as continuing education for licensed judges, and to serve as a prerequisites for entering into the United States Equestrian Federation ‘r’ Judges Training Program.
