Dressage Apprentice

Fabulous Opportunity for keen Equine Enthusiast to join our Team and train as one of the following: Groom, Trainee Competition Groom, Stud Groom or Rider.

You will become part of the Active team, joining a rider and full time staff.

• Opportunity to work with top International foals, youngsters and ridden horses.

• Learning everything about how to train dressage horses.

• Learning all aspects of the business from riding, lunging, feeding, competition grooming, breeding etc. although a non riding position would also be available.

The Equine Apprenticeship is a work-based qualification for those aged 16-23 (we have limited funding for those older), training towards a work-based Level 2 Diploma in Horse Care (for a Groom) leading to the Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Horse Care and Management (for those of a higher level of experience and competency, i.e. Yard Manager).

Both qualifications offer a higher commercial and professional standard than College based Diplomas, due to the learning happening within the work place.
