12-Week Professional Dog Trainer Program
Designed to develop knowledgeable, confident, and versatile professional dog trainers, Dogma Academy’s 12-Week Professional Dog Trainer Program combines foundational education with hands-on instruction across multiple disciplines.
Students explore canine behavior and learning theory, obedience, behavior modification, electronic collar training, scent detection, competitive obedience, protection work, and decoy development. The curriculum also covers kennel management, canine evaluations, and the business fundamentals needed to build a career in the dog training industry.
More than learning how to train dogs, students develop an understanding of why training works. Through practical application, problem-solving, and structured instruction, they learn to evaluate dogs, develop training plans, recognize behavioral challenges, and make informed training decisions.
Whether you're building your foundation or expanding your existing knowledge, this program offers a comprehensive educational experience designed to prepare you for the demands and responsibilities of professional dog training.
