Location:  Zoom Webinar (Virtual classroom)

Hours:      9 am – 5 pm (Pacific Time) each day. Please plan on staying until at least 5PM – no early departures.

Course Requirement: It is a requirement of the course to attend an Introduction to K9 Nose Work® in-person workshop taught by a founder, OR to attend the online webinar version (webinar link will be provided a few weeks prior to the course start date). It is strongly recommended that you watch the webinar prior to the start of the instructor course weekend. Additionally, if it has been more than 3 years since you attending an in-person Intro to K9 Nose Work® it is suggested you view the webinar. Please note the secret words if you’re viewing the online version, as you’ll need to submit them for credit towards certification requirements. If you attended a live workshop, you’ll need to note in your portal record, the date, location and presenter of the workshop. 

In addition, you will need to have access to the internet with reasonable upload/download speeds as well as to a working microphone and camera, as you will be expected to participate and interact visually and via audio with the presenters and fellow instructors-in-training during the length of the course. Live attendance is required for all 8 days of the course. Please plan your schedule and make arrangements accordingly.
