EC NCCP Instructor Cohort Pilot

Ontario Equestrian and the AEF are collaborating to bring a new opportunity to Instructor candidates this fall.

Using a cohort working together in a virtual environment, candidates in a pilot group will work together with an experienced Coach Developer through the training and certification process. Details on the cohort process and schedule will be shared and questions answered during the Coach information webinar on June 27 at 12:00pm ET.

This lunch and learn webinar series sponsored by CapriCMW is offered for free to all members, coaches, instructors and candidates.
