SUMMARY:Online Course - 1/18/23 - Surrender Prevention Certification Workshop - Community Cats Podcast (small fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:As a Surrender Prevention Specialist\, you may be the difference between a cat losing her home and staying in her home. Join this session to learn what surrender prevention is and why it works. Instructed by Dr. Rachel Geller\, she will share real examples\, with proven results\, setting the potential surrenderer and cat on the road to a happy relationship together and keeping the cat in her home. We’ll cover how to empathize with cat owners\, working around their limitations (financial\, time\, patience) and focus on the 3 most common reasons for surrender: litter box problems\, scratching (and not on the scratching post!)\, and inter-cat aggression. Take advantage of the interactive format\, extensive handouts\, and video footage of actual techniques. Attendees will receive a certificate after taking a short quiz. The workshop is offered three times in 2023 and the cost to register is just $10. \nThe session duration is 1.5 hours\, followed by an optional 15-minute Q&A session. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/events/surrender-prevention-certification-workshop-january-2023/

DESCRIPTION:Program overview: This series of educational modules will prepare participants to manage playgroups using the LIMA ethical standard and use conspecific interactions for behavior modification. \nCohort structure: Learners will join a cohort that will meet virtually for four months. Each cohort will be invited to optional twice-monthly (bi-weekly) hour-long\, live meetings via Zoom webinar so that questions can be answered live. The Zoom sessions will be recorded and shared only with the current cohort. \nAs of January 1\, 2023 the following fee structure will apply:\nShelter\, rescue\, or animal-related welfare organization staff and volunteers: no cost\nRegistration process for shelters\, rescues\, or animal-related welfare organizations: Individuals interested in joining each cohort must submit an “e-mail of interest” by the enrollment deadline to mara@shelterdogplay.org.

The program consists of Basic\, Foundation\, and Intermediate modules all of which must be completed to earn CEUs and/or a certificate of completion. Learners may continue their learning across only two cohorts.

Winter cohort registrants may be enrolled into the Spring cohort\, to complete by mid-year the following calendar year.
