Distance learning + Worshops

All our programmes are distance learning. Some modules will have workshops that need to be attended too but the main studies will be in your own time and at your own pace, guided by your tutor through correspondence. More information >>

If you have more that six months quantifiable experience of working with dogs in the behaviour and training disciplines, you can be exempted from CFBA4110 and commence the programmes.

In the first instance, you should email the Registrar registrar@cidbt.org.uk with details of your work experience and permission will then be considered for you to enrol on the programme modules.
