Really great for homeschool curriculum

Great Insights

This course provides valuable insights into the social connections horse have in a herd. It explains the importance of giving horses a lifestyle that provides as much contact with other horses as possible to keep them mentally and emotionally healthy. The section on anatomy presented detailed information in an interesting way with illustrative videos.

amazing but some bug fixes.

love this all so much. one complaint, when I am in the quiz, there are some typos such as, "may" is "Amy" in the quiz but I guess its fine but if you can please fix that that would be wonderful. other than that this is probably the best, most fun and challenging school I have ever done. thank you.

Hi Carrie, we have made these fixes! Thanks for feedback

I think including the words anatomy and physiology confused me at first as a medical professional...

I really enjoyed the mustang information and videos. Also appreciated the herd dynamics at the Free Sprit Equestrian farm during feeding time. I love that you provide videos to actually see the concepts in action. Thank you!

Super interesting

Great course for foundations, but full of little tidbits of really cool info. Was great for me getting back into horses after many years away. Will take more courses for sure.

Love it!!

Not what I was expecting.

This material is helpful in the sense that learning material is organized to consume in a systematic basis, but the quiz has a couple spelling errors or questions that were glossed over in the material, or confusing questions... the material doesn't really dive into too much depth, but covers basics. Overall its a good course though.

First course I bought

I absolutely loved learning about not only captive species of equine but also domestic equine and the environment and where the hierarchy of the horses stand.

I�m already in love and so I excited for what is to come.

I�ve only completed one lesson, but I can tell the equine institute truly cares for their students and helping them become better horse people, professional or not, and I am so excited. I am so glad I decided to jump in, in the middle of the night, after finding this website only an hour ago!
