An Academic Program structured to provide highly professional ongoing learning in the field of dog training.

​

Diplomas and Certificates issued by the Swiss Dog Sports Federation are valid throughout Europe as they are classified according to Article 57 TFEU (Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union) and therefore compliant with Articles 56-62 TCEE. 

​

The Academy of the Swiss Dog Sports Federation focuses on pillars that we consider crucial for both a Sporting and Utility Dog Instructor to ensure optimal handling and complete well-being for dogs and handlers:

​

• Pedagogy/Andragogy

• Canine behaviour and psychology

• Training techniques

• Health and nutrition

• Legislation and ethics

• Breeds and genetics

• Dog Development

• Communication, Interaction and Coaching

 

 

For this reason we have developed a program that provides organic growth for the trainer, leading them through sport and/or utility disciplines to the achievement of their goals.
