About the Training Center
The Training Center serves as the Foundation’s standardized learning environment for individuals and organizations working directly with dogs in shelter, rescue, foster, and community settings. This platform provides structured coursework designed to promote safe, humane, and consistent handling practices across all levels of care.
Who This Training Supports
Our training programs are developed for volunteers, shelter and rescue staff, fosters, transport teams, walkers, boarders, and other community partners engaged in hands‑on animal care. Each course is built to strengthen competency, reduce risk, and support positive outcomes for both dogs and the people responsible for their wellbeing.
How the Training Center Works
Courses are delivered through a dedicated learning management system (LMS), allowing participants to progress through clearly defined modules, complete assessments, and meet established performance standards. This structured approach ensures accountability, measurable learning outcomes, and the option to earn certifications that reflect demonstrated proficiency in core handling and safety skills.
