Continuous Professional Development
The Pony Club requires that, in order to remain on our register of coaches and teach at any Pony Club event, all coaches undertake development training at least once every 2 years. These courses below are organised within the area and all will count as a CPD refresher.
Approved Online CPD training is now taking place.
