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.

Please send your CPD certificate to your Branch or Centre so the Pelham Database can be updated. Please also send your certificate to me, Abby Bernard : area11@pcuk.org. I would like to have a list of coaches with this certificate.
