BOOK NOW FOR TRAINING, GROUPS STARTING OCTOBER 2025
The training takes place over 6 months. We start with 3 consecutive days in a group of four students at Earthhorse Aotearoa (situated between Hamilton and Raglan), followed by online supervisions and written work. Places are strictly limited per intake but it is possible to go on a waiting list for a future date.
Three streams for certification
In relation to your qualifications and experience, your application may be accepted into one of three streams:
• Equine Assisted Learning
• Equine Assisted Therapy
• Equine Whanau Support
The process
Contact us for information regarding pricing etc, and we will send you an application form. We take four trainees at a time and once there are four people accepted we fix a date for that group. If you wish to know whether you will be right for the course, and which stream would suit you best, we can advise you once we have your completed application form. We do not accept trainees into the course by any other means than through the application form. This might be followed by a phone interview to clarify aspects of your application.
Professional Supervision
Ongoing supervision is essential for anyone working in therapy and learning fields. For equine assisted practitioners we offer confidential supervision over Zoom through discussion and the sharing of videos of practical work. We work with anyone who is already working in the field, regardless of where you did your training.
