Featured courses
The Science Of Learning
£60
Have you ever wondered how your pet learns new behaviours? Whether it’s a dog, horse, cat, or any other companion, all animals learn through the same fundamental principles. In fact, the way all animals’ brains learn is surprisingly similar. From Pavlov’s famous experiments with dogs to the application of rewards in modern training, this course will guide you through the fascinating world of learning theory.
Equine Behaviour & Training Course
£396
Filled with the latest science, this course will teach you the science behind equine training and behaviour, how to train your horse in a welfare and ethics-first manner and guide you through all the principles that underpin good horsemanship. Learn how to understand your horse better than ever before, and gain entry requirements for the ABTC recognised and multi-accredited Diploma in Equine Training and Coaching.
The Principles Of Horse Training
£148
Have you ever wondered how expert trainers seem to effortlessly communicate with their horses, making training look fluid and natural? While “horse whispering” may sound like magic, the real secret lies in shaping and successive approximations—powerful techniques that help trainers create clarity and ease for their horses, resulting in soft, supple responses.
