As EQUA is taught almost exclusively by equine veterinarians, students are exposed to the kind of depth, as well as scope, that few equine programs have offered to the general public in the past. At this point, there are no formal requirements to enter the program. As EQUA focuses on the science of the horse, students are encouraged to feel comfortable with the fundamentals of science. We're looking forward to hearing from you. Think of EQUA as a series of building blocks rather than a sequential program of study.
Students can enter at any point.
Most courses can be taken in any order. The fastest-growing segment involves students working toward a Technician's Certificate. I haven't been in school in a long, long time. Remarkably, the common denominator among all successful EQUA students is their passion for the study of the horse. Other variables, such as the student's age, lack of formal training, or years since high school or college, have a less significant impact on the student's ability to achieve.
