All sessions of this six-week series will be held online through Zoom and Teachable, an online/interactive learning platform.
Join us in a virtual classroom! Online training is great when you don't want to travel, but want to get the same professional guidance. While the curriculum is the same, you'll have the benefit of training in your puppy's typical environment so they can be as focused and comfortable as possible. With plenty of opportunity for one-on-one support, online training can be just as effective and fun as in-person classes.
All you need is access to the internet and a way to shoot videos (your phone!). Your videos will not be public unless you want them to be, but your instructor will be able to coach you on the exercises and give personalized feedback. All students will be able to make progress at the pace that's right for them.
This course uses two platforms:
- Zoom Video Conferencing: Every week you'll have the opportunity to meet live with your instructor. There will be a lecture portion and time for questions and live practice with your puppy. Students who attend live sessions typically get the most benefit from the class; however, you can also follow along without attending live. You do not need a Zoom account to participate.
- Teachable: This online teaching platform allows you to get written material, watch video demos, and submit questions. You will receive an invitation from your instructor, with a link to sign into the class at no additional charge. If you can't attend the live sessions, the weekly Teachable updates will guide you through the information.
