- To observe a Learning Lab, reserve an observer spot for no additional cost.

- There are Learning Labs designed specifically for humans (without their dogs). To participate in these, reserve a participant spot for no additional cost.
- In some Learning Labs there may be a need for demonstration volunteers. To volunteer your dog to be handled by a speaker and/or lab coach in a Lab demonstration, reserve a Demo Volunteer spot for no additional cost.
Each three-day registrant can reserve spots in up to 4 Labs, 2 Labs for a Two Day Registration, or 1 Lab for a One Registration.
You can schedule your Labs any way you choose. For example, if you are going for three days, you can participate in one Lab on Friday and two on Saturday, one each day, or three the same day. You choose what fits your schedule best.
Yes. If the Lab you want is full, you can place your name on the waitlist and also select another Lab that is open. Here's how it works:
- As attendees change their schedules, spots open up.
- When a spot opens up, you will be notified by email in the order you joined the waitlist.
- To add the Lab, see the question see Section 3: View/Modify Registration.
- You will have 24 hours before the next person on the waitlist is notified. Details will be provided in the e-mail.
**Please Note: Being on the waitlist does not guarantee you the next available spot. When a spot opens up, you will be notified in the order you were waitlisted, and new registrants will be able to register, but only the first to do so will be added. We encourage you to add events@clickertraining.com to your email contacts to ensure receipt of all emails.
**Learning Lab limits will still apply when you are notified for an open spot. If you choose to add a lab you have been notified of, but have reached your limit, you will need to modify your schedule.
If an opening occurs prior to the start of Expo, we will contact you by email. Once Expo has begun:
- If there is a Lab that interests you, check with the Expo Registration Desk for availability. If there is space they can register you for that Lab.
- Open Labs are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The options for Labs are:
- Observer — you are going to the Lab to watch only. If you have a service dog or a small dog that fits under your seat, you may bring the dog with you, but you should not work with your dog during the Lab.
- Dog & Handler — you will be bringing a dog with you and you will be working with your dog during the Lab. See participant notes in individual course descriptions for a more detailed understanding of the skills required and activities planned for each Lab.
- Demo Volunteer - you are going to the Lab to watch only and volunteer your dog to be handled by a speaker and/or lab coach in a Lab demonstration.
Service dogs are always welcome.
You will see that Learning Labs frequently list another course as a "prerequisite." To keep the Labs at the appropriate pace, speakers will assume that you have attended the prerequisite Session.
- If You Are a Participant: If you intend to work with your dog in a Lab, you must attend the prerequisite Session. The Labs build on the material in the prerequisite Session; you would have a difficult time keeping up with the Learning Lab if you did not attend the prerequisite Session.
- If You Are an Observer: If you are attending a Lab as an observer, we recommend that you attend the prerequisite Session as well, but it is not a requirement. As an observer who has not attended the prerequisite Session, please refrain from asking questions during the Lab. Those questions were likely answered in the prerequisite Session.
Participants in a Learning Lab may not skip the prerequisite Session. The purpose of the Lab is to put into practice concepts, skills, and ideas presented in the prerequisite course. The instructor will assume that you have been to the prerequisite Session and will conduct the Lab on that basis. Show that you respect other participants' time and get the most out of the Lab by attending the prerequisite Session.

Yes! We have five distinct course formats.
Dem-OH! Session
Learn about a training topic and watch it come to life! Live demonstrations from world-class trainers working with their animals or with colleagues’ animals from around the globe. Includes demonstrations, presentation, and audience Q&A.
Learning Lab
Participate from home alongside trainers and teachers and your animals! Practice the exercises with your own animals during designated working times or sign up for one of the limited Spotlight spots to also get coaching from the presenter(s) in view of the virtual audience. Includes audience Q&A and, usually, a presentation and a live demonstration, too!
Spotlight Spots (limited and require pre-registration):
- Some Learning Labs are meant for you to work with your animal. Those Labs have limited Animal/Handler Spotlight Team spots ($15).
- Others are meant to develop your skills and are for humans only. Those Labs have Spotlight Participants (complimentary).
Make sure to read the course descriptions fully.
Prefer to work with your animal off camera without Faculty feedback, or simply observe? That’s fine too, and no pre-registration is required in that case.
Bonus Time
Ask questions or be a fly on the wall and listen to a spontaneous and candid conversation about training—and anything else that comes up. It's Bonus Time!
Let’s Talk! (Panel Discussions)
Delve into a specific topic in a moderated discussion with a panel of speakers gathered together on our virtual stage, with time for audience Q&A.
Webinar
Prefer a traditional online presentation? We’ve got those, too! These courses are for attendees who like learning from a webinar-style presentation, with time for Q&A.
In the ClickerExpo LIVE course schedule, courses are color coded by format type. You can see what the colors mean in the key at the top of the page.
Also, if you click on a title, you’ll find the “Course Type” directly under the speaker name.
ClickerExpo LIVE registration includes access to all courses PLUS access to all the conference course recordings for one year.
There are limited Spotlight Spots in Learning Labs that require pre-registration to get coaching from the presenter(s) in view of the virtual audience. There is a maximum of 2 Spotlight Spots per registrant.
- Some Learning Labs are meant for you to work with your animal. Those Labs have limited Animal/Handler Spotlight Team spots for $15.
- Others are meant to develop your skills and are for humans only. Those Labs have Spotlight Participants (no charge).
Make sure to read the course descriptions and Learning Lab prerequisites fully.
Prefer to work with your animal off camera without Faculty feedback, or simply observe? That’s fine too, and no pre-registration is required in that case. You may attend an unlimited number of Labs as an observer.
Each registrant can reserve up to two Spotlight Spots in Learning Labs, to get coaching from the presenter(s) in view of the virtual audience. (Please note these spots are very limited.) The two Spotlight Spots can be reserved on the same day or different days (based on availability) - your choice!
Prefer to work with your animal off camera without Faculty feedback, or simply observe? That’s fine too, and no pre-registration is required in that case and access is unlimited!
You will see that all Learning Lab descriptions have Spotlight Spot Prerequisites, which include animal/handler skills, equipment, and more that speakers will expect those that sign up for Spotlight Spots to have/have available during the Learning Lab. Please be sure to check the prerequisites before registering for a Spotlight Spot.
Since each Animal/Handler Spotlight Team and Spotlight Participant will appear on camera during ClickerExpo LIVE, there are additional expectations for those that sign up for Spotlight Spots. Animal/Handler Spotlight Teams or Spotlight Participants must agree to:
- Be on camera in a well-lit room.
- Have enough space to work comfortably while remaining visible to the ClickerExpo audience.
- Have sufficient internet bandwidth to participate on camera.
- Test your computer and equipment on your own prior to participating in this Lab.
- Join the Learning Lab online 15 minutes before the start.
It is also recommended that those with Spotlight Spots have a wireless headset, as you will be working at a distance from your computer, and will need to be heard during the Learning Lab.
What is a Spotlight Spot? See "Do I reserve a spot for particular courses? And what are Spotlight Spots?" in this section of the FAQs.
We're glad you asked! We have a handy video that shows you how to add the Spotlight Spot to your agenda in registration. (Press play on the video below. To make it bigger, click the button in the lower right-hand corner.)
You do not need to pre-register to observe or to work with your animal off-camera.
Yes. If the Lab you want is full, you can place your name on the waitlist and also select another Lab that is open. Here's how it works:
- As attendees change their schedules, spots open up.
- When a spot opens up and you are on the waitlist, you will be notified by email in the order you joined the waitlist.
- To add the Lab, see the question see Section 3: View/Modify Registration.
- You will have 24 hours before the next person on the waitlist is notified. Details will be provided in the e-mail.
**Please Note: Being on the waitlist does not guarantee you the next available spot. When a spot opens up, you will be notified in the order you were waitlisted, and new registrants will be able to register, but only the first to do so will be added. One (1) week after you are notified, you will be removed from the waitlist if you have not chosen to register for the open spot. We encourage you to add events@clickertraining.com to your email contacts to ensure receipt of all emails.
**Learning Lab limits will still apply when you are notified for an open spot. If you choose to add a lab you have been notified of, but have reached your limit, you will need to modify your schedule.

By agreement with the speakers, attendees may not audiotape or videotape during Sessions or Labs. Please avoid using flash cameras during videos or demonstrations. If you are taking still pictures, please don’t obscure the view for other people by moving in front of them.

If not, ask your neighbors during lunch or break times—it’s a good way to make new friends. Many attendees are very sophisticated clicker trainers and can answer 19 out of 20 of the most burning questions you may have. Faculty members are often available for informal discussion in the halls and between Sessions.
Please refrain from bringing up your own experience during a lecture, i.e. “My dog always...” or “My horse never...” Attendees should reserve these type of questions for one-on-one conversation.
Appropriate questions will be based off course subject-matter or will be questions that will benefit a larger audience's collective learning.
Virtual Meeting Etiquette
All participants will be muted upon entering courses. Please submit your questions via the Chat or Q&A feature and we will address as many as possible.
In some courses, presenters may ask you to ask your question on camera. Please be sure to note in your question if you are not able to, or prefer not to be on camera and a moderator will ask your question for you.
Please use the chat feature appropriately and refrain from private conversations in the chat during a course.
During the conference, please make sure that your device’s camera is off when the session begins.
In some courses, you may be asked to turn your camera on to ask a question. In that case, a moderator will request that you turn your camera on.

While we are taking all precautions to avoid technological/internet challenges, there may be situations that happen that are outside of our control.

There is an inherent risk in presenting live from locations all over the world (including remote locations) and there is the possibility of any number of disruptions including but not limited to the following:
- A presenter is unable to connect, and therefore the course is also unable to be presented or recorded;
- An attendee can’t connect;
- A course is interrupted or is unable to be completed, and is therefore also unable to be recorded;
- The conference platform or the network that it relies on goes down;
- Intermittent or unclear audio or video transmission;
- The recording feature malfunctions;
- And so on.
We are compiling resources to help you prepare technologically for the event. Please take some time to review the Preparing for the Event section of the FAQs to help alleviate some issues prior to the start of the event.
