The exact nature of Mack Hansen's re-education training is still under discussion but the URC is hopeful it will allow for the Ireland wing to present a player’s perspective.
In addition to a three-match ban for his outburst following Connacht's BKT URC defeat to Leinster in December, an independent disciplinary panel ordered the 26-year-old to undertake "an appropriate course (related to match officiating)... with the learnings to be disseminated with his team-mates at Connacht."
Connacht boss Pete Wilkins’ confirmed to RTÉ Sport on Monday that those details were still being worked on.
This morning the United Rugby Championship hosted a virtual round-table meeting with referees’ boss Tappe Henning, who was reluctant to go into details about the on-going process.
However, they are hopeful that Hansen's presentation will include a players' perspective on officiating.
"We want something positive to come out of this, all of us in this process," said the South African.
"Our focus and our best efforts will be that the game will benefit from an incident that was so sorry to happen.
"That's all I can say about that now, that we'll try to turn it into a positive in the relationships between match officials and teams and players."
Henning also clarified that because Hansen's charge was under misconduct laws and not foul play, it was not dealt with immediately and the Canberra native, currently with Ireland in Portugal in their pre-Six Nations training camp, was able to play for Connacht against Ulster.
Referee Chris Busby, who was in charge of the Leinster v Connacht game, remains available for selection for the rest of the season, the URC confirmed. He will be on duty as an assistant referee for the Leinster v Stormers tie on Saturday (5pm).
Meanwhile, Henning was also able to clarify some issues around the new lineout laws.
From the start of January, uncontested lineout throws that did not go straight are not necessarily penalised with a scrum against the team throwing the ball.
Queries had arisen about what constituted a 'contested' lineout, and if a player jumping by themselves in the lineout would qualify.
"A player must be clearly lifted by another player, that will constitute a legitimate contest," he told RTÉ Sport.
"Pretend, dummy jumps, one player jumping is not a contest."
Additionally, a lineout throw that goes towards the opposition line, even if uncontested, can be penalised with a scrum.
The URC also said it hopes to introduce an 'ask the ref' feature to their website after round 11 in February, where fans can ask questions about big decisions in games.
"There is a need to sign off on the big moments and the talking points of a game," said Henning.
"We are looking to facilitate that where we can ask about the decisions in a game and what are the outcomes.
"I am keen to explore that with the URC where we can clarify decisions of the referee and the process that he undertook, and where we can hold our hands up and say what we got wrong or indeed also clarify that the referee was correct.
"We need to do some background work to explore how that can happen and when it might happen.
"Is Monday too late or we do it on Sunday morning? I don't know.
"As a competition we can improve on that, to bring it out into the open, because everyone wonders about decisions, was it a try or not? We need to sign off on that at some stage."
