A Practitioner has fulfilled all the requirements of his or her apprenticeship and has been evaluated and determined to be proficient in handling, training and teaching skills. This level within the teaching program provides an individual with the opportunity to advertise as a Camelidynamics Practitioner. Practitioners are certified to teach private, semi-private and group lessons* for up to 6-8 people. Lessons are focused on specific Camelidynamics skills and methods with a significant hands-on component and differ from workshops and clinics in both scope and organization. (To more fully understand the definition of Lesson vs. Clinic/Workshop – See Definitions in the Appendix.) Additionally, the Practitioner is qualified to consult privately about barn design and challenging animals at competitive rates.
The Practitioner will be required to continue to obtain additional education to maintain their certification to keep current with new methodologies, techniques and innovations. They will also be expected to continue to refresh and refine their teaching, coaching, and animal handling proficiency. The EU requirements listed are the minimum required. Anyone interested in becoming an Instructor in the future, is encouraged to take every opportunity to pursue additional education. The compelte list of benefits, dues and educational requirements to attain and maintain Practitioner status is fully listed and exlplained in the Guild Guidelines and appendix.
