Everyone will start with Level 1 and will not be able to move to the next certification level until the previous level is completed.
Most countries have no requirements for being a certificated dog trainer as it is not a regulated industry. Check with your local government to see what the requirements are for your county.
Change the text and add your own content, including any information that is relevant to share. Then customize the font, size and scale to make it your own. You can also drag and drop this text box anywhere on the page, or switch it out with another element.
We have programs scheduled all throughout 2025. Once you have completed level 1, we will schedule an onboarding phone call and at that time we will discuss the available program dates. Because certification programs are set up as a “work at your own pace” and you must complete the previous certification before moving on to the next level we will not be pre-enrolling anyone.
You have as long as it takes you to complete each level. The certification programs are a work “at your own pace.”
No, all videos and all testing must be completed to obtain the Level 1 certification and to move on to Level 2.
All major credit cards, Apple pay, Google pay, Cash App, etc. For payment plans it will depend on where you live as to what is available in your area. We have Klarna, Affirm, and AfterPay.
We are not offering an online option for certification, the in-person component is required to obtain the Level 2 and/or Level 3 certification. If you cannot travel to us, you can purchase the video only option and then upgrade to certification when you are able to travel here for the in-person component.
No, although some of the Premium Course content is included with the Certification videos there are 125+ videos that have been available for viewing before in Level 1 alone and all but a few in Level 2 and Level 3.
Only a handful of videos in any of the levels are also on the Subscription page. Most of the content is never seen before videos.
Of course not! The training in all 3 levels would benefit anyone with dogs in their lives, pet owner, foster, volunteer at a shelter/rescue, doggie daycare, pet sitter, etc.
No, the $250 is to re-certify you for your current level of certification.
To keep your certification level status, business information available on our website, affiliate codes, etc., continued access to the monthly live coaching, and access to additional videos added to the video libraries in the future.
The re-certification fee covers all the above and the time to look into business practice and reviews.
The Level 2 and Level 3 in-person components could be scheduled with a week off in between. But the only way you can register and attend the Level 3 in-person component is if you have completed Level 2 certification. You are welcome to submit videos before attending Level 2 (although not recommended) and we will do our best to review them before the next Level 3.
Yes, but keep in mind that you must complete the previous certification level before becoming certified in the next level.
