Welcome

Congratulations for choosing the number one equine-assisted learning program in North America. Today you will be looking through information about the most incredible interactive horse-human learning experience available in the country and we plan to make your experience a memorable one.

Albert Wight studied methods of education extensively and concluded a need for change from the traditional classroom and lecture format to an educational alternative called "participative method", which focuses on the experiential process of learning rather than the mere transmission of information. Experiential learning has recently been termed "the natural way of learning", and defined as the process by which the experience of the learner is reflected upon, from which new insights emerge.

The Cartier Equine Learning Center's certified equine-assisted learning programs are the first to implement this interactive, BuildingBlock™ format by which individuals, like yourself, come to learn how to facilitate the participation of opportunities of engagement in experiential learning while working with horses. We are excited at this opportunity to help you understand how to incorporate this innovative style of learning into your existing program.

We are excited you chose the Cartier Equine Leaning Center and want to assure you that everyone is a dedicated professional committed to do everything in our power to assist you in your journey to EAL learning. It is our mission to provide you with the keys necessary to find long term success with these valuable EAL skills.

Cordially,
Tamara MacKinnon
Program Director
