Whether you want to train companion animals, work with exotic species or advance your career in animal behaviour, these courses will give you the practical skills and knowledge you need to succeed. Learn how to create effective and ethical training plans that improve communication, your training efficiency, and the overall well-being of the animals in your care.

Our Equine Training Courses

Our equine expertise has allowed us to create a series of paid training courses, designed to help you gain far more success with your horse whilst understanding the science behind what causes them to act the way they do. Whether your horse feels ‘over-excitable’ or ‘explosive‘, our range of equine training courses is perfect for you. We also have an extensive collection of resources and guidebooks, completely free of charge, for prospective and current horse trainers looking for a little expert help.

Our Canine Training Courses

Understanding the science of how animals learn is critical for all forms of animal training. Especially for canines, the fundamental practices can make all the difference when wanting to teach desired behaviours and remove unwanted behaviour. Our science of learning course is perfect for dog owners and trainers everywhere, whether you’re a beginner or it’s your profession. Of course, our positive reinforcement guidebook is useful for pet owners looking for some science to refer to when in the early stages of training your animal.
