Want to take a deep dive into dog training?
Check out the Dog Trainer Comprehensive course, Karen Pryor Academy's newest online course for those with a significant interest in dog training and behavior. This course will help you learn both the canine training skills and knowledge employed by Karen Pryor Academy trainers and applied in quality, modern, positive reinforcement training. 

The Dog Trainer Comprehensive course is a great fit for students who: 
  • may not be ready for/are unable to take the full Dog Trainer Professional certification program
  • are looking for the next step beyond the KPA Dog Trainer Foundations course
  • want to add deep positive reinforcement training skills to an existing animal-care skill set (veterinary technicians, dog walkers, and others)
  • want to learn with a non-canine species

Key Elements: 
  • A Personal Coach: The course includes 10 hours of online coaching from a KPA Certified Professional. We use chat, email, video, and more to deliver the support you need.
  • Flexibility: Learn at the pace and level that works for you, put the course on pause if you need to, and even complete the course with a non-canine animal. Plus, it's all online so you can start anytime, anywhere, on any device.
  • Fun and Challenging Curriculum: Tons of fun activities, engaging videos, and progressive skill-building keep you moving forward. For all experience levels!
