Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada – Montréal (Québec) – The Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada (SDRCC) is happy to announce that the Investigation Unit is now fully operational. Supporting the will of the Canadian sport system to foster healthy and safe workplace and sport practice environments, the SDRCC decided, last fall, to extend his expertise to offer, as a pilot project until March 2020, a list of qualified and independent investigators to assist federally-funded sport organizations in handling complaints and allegations.

Offered on a voluntary and fee-for-service basis, the investigation services are overseen by an Advisory Committee and provided by pre-selected investigators who received sport-specific orientation and training. Remuneration conditions, operating standards, policies and guidelines for quality control have been established to ensure the smooth running of the pilot project. More information on this program can be found at the following link: http://www.crdsc-sdrcc.ca/eng/investigation-unit

The Advisory Committee is also seeking applications from more qualified investigators interested in joining the Investigation Unit. They are invited to send their applications by email to the SDRCC before 4 p.m. (EST) on January 18, 2019.
