Course overview

The aim of the Courses is to prepare those individuals who are on the verge of applying for a Licence to Train, rather than to teach the art of training racehorses.

• Module 1: Racehorse Management (to be eligible to attend this course applicants must have achieved a Diploma Level 3 in Racehorse Care and Management)
• Module 2: Business Skills
• Module 3: Staff Management.

The above courses are made up of a series of seminars, which are delivered by specialist racing consultants, who each have extensive working knowledge of the horseracing industry.

With the increasing competition for staff and the complexity of employment regulations, this Module will equip you with important information on, and skills in:

Recruiting, employing and managing people

Health & Safety & Safeguarding obligations as an employer

Marketing

Employment Law and NTF Guide

Eligibility 

Successful completion of these modules is essential for those wishing to pursue a career training racehorses.

Applicants must also complete Modules 1 and 2 but the Modules can be completed in any order.
