British College of Canine Studies

We provide specialised courses for anyone interested in pursuing a career working with dogs. Our courses are written and assessed by professionals currently working within the canine behaviour and training field. This assures our students that the course content is current and well informed, and will equip you with real world knowledge which you can put to use immediately upon completion.

Study your chosen subject in your own time, from the comfort of your own home, safe in the knowledge that the course you have enrolled upon is fully recognised, and taught by professionals currently working in your chosen field.

At BCCS, our aim is to equip our students with all the information you will need to then go off and actually run a business in your chosen field. Many units come with an optional practical element which gives you a truly hands on experience.

The BCCS was established after our practicing behaviourists and trainers were horrified by the number of reports they received from clients regarding the ill informed and potentially dangerous advice being given by so-called 'qualified' practitioners. With the canine industry still very much unregulated, anyone wishing to call themselves a canine expert can do so. It is worrying that some accredited international colleges offer dog behaviour courses which are being assessed and marked by tutors from completely unrelated fields. We made the decision to set up a college run by canine experts, offering safe, intelligent and practical advice to enable students to become well informed canine professionals and offer excellent levels of service to their prospective clients.

All of our courses are online home study, with the option of trying out your newly acquired skills in the practical unit offered in many cases. There is no time limit on completing your studies, so you can learn in your own time and at your own pace, with full support from one of our professional tutors.
