Sept. 7, 2013 — You can attend Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) Clinics throughout North America. These educational certification clinics are open to riding instructors, vaulting coaches, barn managers and trail guides who want to have a professional certification under their belt and help with insurance discounts and in marketing their equine programs.
Safety, professionalism, herd management, teaching techniques, and group lesson control are all evaluated by two staff members during the clinic. The busiest months for clinics are May and June.
Here are the clinics that will be held in the last part of 2013, and more are added all the time. http://cha-ahse.org/store/clinics.php
You can sign up to receive our free monthly e-newsletters that include a list of clinics at www.CHA-ahse.org. You also can host a clinic and make some money for your equine facility. For more information visit http://cha-ahse.org/store/pages/37/How_to_Host.html.
