A series of face-to-face consultation workshops are planned for the three racing and breeding industry projects.
- Retraining Horses & Greyhounds to New Environments
- Greyhound Health Assistance Services
- Horse Breeding Skills
You are invited to attend a workshop near you, to provide feedback on the draft qualifications, skill sets and units of competency that are being developed as part of these projects. The drafts will be available on the project webpages for download and feedback in November, to correspond with the workshop dates.
Workshops are identified as specific to either greyhounds or horses. If you have an interest across both horse and greyhound racing codes, register your attendance for both. One or more webinars may also be planned for those unable to attend in person.
