Is your cue dominant or sub-dominant? In this not-to-be-missed presentation, the presenter, Louise Stapleton-Frappell is going to help you understand why you want your cue to be dominant and not irrelevant! By the end of the presentation, you will not only understand how to communicate more clearly with your learner to facilitate speedy learning, but you will also have a greater knowledge of how to promote effortless ‘generalization’ of the skills taught. Lots of video demonstrations are included to help cement your learning.

Although the presentation is aimed at pet professionals, pet dog guardians will also find the information invaluable.

Registered for the live event, get busy and cannot make it! No worries you will automatically receive a recording!
