If you have an interest or love for dogs then it’s a perfect course. It provides a great building block if you wish to maybe progress to other courses in animal care, whilst giving you the ability to structure your study around your lifestyle. It’s certainly changed the way I interact with dogs especially now I have more of an understanding of why they do the things they do, signs and symptoms of illnesses along with causes, anatomy and job industries dealing with dogs. It wasn’t a chore to study but thoroughly interesting and enjoyable.

What is the course duration?

Generally the courses should take you about 100 hours of study.  We give you up to 12 months to complete the course, but you can finish faster.  Each lesson has a written assignment for you will receive individual feedback from your tutor.  There are also self assessment quizzes for each lesson (non assessable).  The strength of our courses is in that each lesson has an assignment, this means you are forced to engage with the content and can’t just skip over an important lesson.  By the end of the course you have really engaged and that equals learning!
