Prerequisites, credits and points

Learn how the components of Lasso Safe work to make certification possible.

Lasso Safe prerequisites, Lasso Safe credits, Lasso Safe points—they all contribute to certification, but how are they different? These three fundamental elements help you achieve Lasso Safe certification for your sport center. 

​

Prerequisites

Lasso Safe certification means safer, more productive places for us to train, compete, work and visit, by encouraging safe- and more profitable sport centers. While center leaders and managers can pick and choose the credits they want to pursue, prerequisites set the minimum requirements that all centers need to meet in order to achieve Lasso Safe certification.

Additionally, fulfilling the requirements of prerequisites will not earn points. Think of them as base training—without it, you can’t build up to competition training.

Credits

These are what truly set your building apart from the rest. You are free to go for any credit you want within your chosen rating system, as long as it applies to your sport division. Certain credits pair well with certain prerequisites or even other credits—we call that an integrated process—which amounts to synergistic benefits.

If prerequisites are base training, then credits are everything else - race training, competition training, even competition performance itself. That is also why credits earn you points. 

Points

The more points, the higher the reward. With Lasso Safe, there are many rewards, ranging from safer spaces to centers that save money and reduce risk. The number of points a project earns determines the level of Lasso Safe certification it receives. There are four levels of certification:

• Certified (40–49 points)

• Bronze (50–59 points)

• Silver (60–79 points)

• Gold (80+ points)
