These are just a few of the fun & informative workshops offered by the founders of K9 Nose Work® & the NACSW℠, and NACSW℠ faculty. Most official NACSW℠ K9 Nose Work® workshops & seminars offer Continuing Education Units for certified trainers.

New workshops and seminars are currently in development to continue bringing K9 Nose Work® enthusiasts the most informative and up to date educational experiences. Check the workshop schedule for information on the latest and newest workshops being offered in your area.
