Equine Studies Program

This program caters to a wide variety of students; especially those that are looking to expend their overall equine knowledge, and those that are interested in an equine based career. The program covers three fundamental courses, with focus on equine management, equine education, equine health and nutrition. Students will learn in a classroom setting, as well as practice their skills hands on with staff and horses at the facility. The program is curriculum based and is run with a designated lesson plan, after topics are covered the participants will have their knowledge tested before progressing to the next level. Past students that have chosen to continue on in the equine field, and have used this knowledge and experience for school credit and admissions resumes.
