Hello and welcome to Horse Behaviour and Safety.

We are so happy to have you with us – joining our new Horse Portal.

The online environment is the classroom.  I will be using the announcements to communicate with the class. Please make sure you check for new announcements each time you log onto your course.

Our course is 3 weeks with 10 units:

week 1 (mon to fri) – unit 1 through 5

week 2 (mon to fri) – unit 6 through 9

week 3 – unit 10  Guest Speaker & Review

Before we get started I recommend that you go through our quick tutorial – it will help you to navigate the site and get the most out of your experience.

Welcome to the Horse Portal!

I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the course.  Read the course overview, objective and assignments.

If you have any questions, please post in “Discussions” – Questions to the Instructor
