KC's Clones Trainer Apprenticeship Program T.A.P. into your potential!!! Mission Statement: To aid motivated individuals in getting hands on experience training horses, while transforming good horses into better horses for the purpose of finding them suitable homes. So you think you would like to train horses? Would you like to have hands on professional instruction while gaining valuable experience? Are you honest, self- motivated & hard working? Would you like to have the potential to make money for your time & effort? Would you like to aid in re-homing horses that otherwise may not have a fair chance? Then KC’s Clones Trainer Apprenticeship Program may be right for you!! If you have aspirations of becoming a horse trainer or you would just like to improve your horsemanship skills to make working with your own horses safer & more gratifying, then KC's Clones apprenticeship program could be for you! This is a unique opportunity to get professional instruction while getting many hours of hands-on experience working with horses at various stages of training. Since we want every horse in the barn to be the best one, we emphasize cross training here at KC's "tReining" Center and a key ingredient to that formula is a broad, solid foundation. You will gain valuable experience in many areas including, but not limited to: round penning, longing, long-lining, driving, sacking out, hobbling, obstacles and extensive arena & trail work. You will not officially be paid for your time but you will come away with priceless experience and insights you might not otherwise gain. Depending on the amount of time you can devote to the program, you might qualify for KC's Clones Incentive Program where you are assigned a project horse suitable to your skill level, a 6 month minimum enrollment is required. You will be responsible for training (or re-training) this horse, under professional supervision. This project animal will then be sold either by private sale or at a special auction to the highest bidder. You will then be awarded half of the selling price for your participation. Part of your duties include marketing this horse and showing it to prospective buyers. This will give you a personal interest in several key aspects of the horse business. This program is available only if a suitable project horse can be obtained. The horses enrolled in this program are donated by individuals who wish to see their horse have a fair chance at being transformed into an honest citizen in the equine society. If you have a horse you might like to donate to this program, please contact us for an application. You must be pre-approved for participation in any of these programs. Applicant criteria is listed below. This an option for people to place their horse into a facility and program whose goal is to educate both the horse and the human for the betterment of both. This is not a get rich quick scheme, we are not going to retire on the proceeds from this program! The horse market is far too fragile to hope for something like that. It is, however, a unique opportunity for the right individuals to enrich their lives & to secure good homes for unwanted horses. |
