Whether you are working with a dog or a cat, a horse or a goat, a tiger or an eagle, training has to begin somewhere. But where? What do great training session starts have in common, regardless of the species? What skills should you master to get started training? What should you teach your animal first?

Get ready to discuss answers to these questions and to put those answers into practice in Ken Ramirez’s unique hands-on working Learning Lab at ClickerExpo LIVE. He’ll cover, and provide opportunities to practice, both core trainer skills that are needed before you work with any species and skills to teach your animal (skills like stationing, targeting, capturing, and more). Watch Animal/Handler Spotlight Teams practice exercises with Ken’s coaching or follow along from home with your own animal and ask questions during Q&A!
