We know you are busy! The course was designed for working professionals.
We allow for holidays (generously!) and work with students to plan coursework so they can best fit the program into their schedule. The 12 week estimated time frame allows for 2 hours a week of time dedicated to the course as well as one flex week. The course is self-paced, so students can dedicate more hours some weeks and less others. Most students complete with a couple of weeks to spare.
All discussion and feedback is done via email or via the class discussion areas. This means you can work on the course, ask questions and participate in discussions during times that fit your schedule.
We have found that setting a time limit is a benefit to students. It helps students stay on track and meet their goal of getting started in service dog training. We also recognize that trainers are busy, have commitments and travel schedules. So if you have scheduling concerns, please let us know so we can discuss your needs.
