We are currently seeking Expressions of Interest for Conference Presenters!
Our intention with this conference is to bring a dynamic and engaging learning experience showcasing the diverse nature of equine assisted practices in Australia to inform services from solo providers to larger organisations.
To this end, we invite practitioners, researchers, and other professionals in the field to consider presenting in one of two ways; 30 minute presentation or workshop/experiential learning OR Pony Tales: sharing a lived experience from clients.
As part of our e-newsletter family, you will have first priority to new webinars, retreats and upcoming training opportunities with our experience practitioners.
Don’t worry – we don’t spam you. We won’t send you meaningless emails :)
