Once you are registered you will be sent an invitation to the group. You will be able to talk amongst yourselves in the group and also ask questions. Debranne Pattillo will be monitoring the group should you have any questions for her directly in regards to the course material.
To support the Section Three: Palpating Surface Anatomy, a video is up at www.youtube.com and the two parts can be located by typing Equinology in the search box. This video was done by the participants of the EQ101: Equine Body Worker® Certification Course and the EQ103: Advanced Equine Massage Techniques Level One at Flying Cloud Farm, Petaluma, CA in April and May of 2009. They stayed after class several days to show you the bones against the horse and then how to locate the surface anatomy! Illustrations also help the material.
This is a self paced group. You can take as long as you wish; there is no need to be in front of a computer at a scheduled time. When you complete the course an exam will be emailed to you. No worries! You have 3 attempts to pass.
