Fast-Track One Day Workshops
Do you live outside the Portland area? Or are you unable to attend all 5 weeks of prep school? Rather than attend the entire prep school, you can attend our all-day, condensed workshop with your pet to learn the skills and information you'll need to become a Pet Partner team. You will have a half hour break for lunch (please bring your own lunch). The last part of the day involves a field trip to the airport to expose you to a real life scenario. Students must return at a later date for their final evaluation as specified below. 2010 Class Schedule
All Fast-Track workshops are on Saturdays from 9 am - 6pm.
*For your final evaluation, you will return to OHS on the date listed at a pre-arranged time that you set up with your instructor.
