Overview

Congratulations! You have a puppy or new dog. It’s going to be so much fun with a new furball around. But with that fun comes responsibilities. As a pet parent it’s your duty to make sure your pup is safe and safe to be around. You are responsible for their well-being and success so take the time and effort to help them adjust so they can be the best dog they can be!

This course is taught by certified dog trainer, Ian Stone, who has 10 years of experience working in animal welfare. You will watch videos with real dogs which will guide you step by step through puppy training from when you first bring your new dog home to essential dog training commands such as “Sit.” Whether you have a puppy or are training your new shelter dog, everything in this course can be applied to canine pals of any age!

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
