The Training Schedule section below shows you just what a
fascinating and absorbing course this is. It provides you with an
in-depth study of the grooming process, the techniques required and
their application to the huge variety of coats you are likely to
encounter across the hundreds of dog breeds. From the short wiry
coat of the Yorkshire Terrier to the long luxurious pelt of the
Afghan Hound; all require different techniques, different tools and
an understanding of various temperaments of the different
breeds.

Support
All training and practical tasks will be carried out at all times under the close supervision of a qualified Tutor. Your Tutor is there to support you and assist you through this course.
Assessment
Assessment of each learner will be carried out during each day
and at the end of the course. Written feedback and a grade of
either pass, merit or distinction will be awarded. The grade
achieved will be written onto the completion certificate.
This will be sent out after training is completed and all written
tasks completed and handed in.
All activities will have accompanying written text given to the
learner. A homework task will be set at the end of every day
and must be handed in the next training day.
The grooming DVDs are a very important learning aid. We
expect all students to watch them at least twice during their
training course.
All students must photograph their practical work before and after the task and the day’s activities written up. This forms a useful portfolio for their future use and also acts as evidence of their training. This is especially important should they wish to undertake City and Guilds qualifications.
