While thinking about a topic for this blog, I thought of educational resources that are out there for horse owners. Below are some Extension related websites that you may be interested in. You can call or email your local Extension Agent with horse related questions.
North Carolina Cooperative Extension and Extension Horse Husbandry have a webcast series (Elluminate). The webcasts start at 7pm and are free. Some Extension Offices host the webcasts or you can watch from home. The next webcast is February 21st on Legal Issues to Consider as a Horse Owner presented by Dr. Mike Yoder, PhD, NC State University. There will also be a webcast on March 13th on Ask the Professional Trainer, Questions & Answers by Robin Lynn, BS, NC State University. For more information, contact your Local Extension Agent or go to NCSU Webcasts.
eXtension is a partnership of universities in the United States to provide research-based information and learning opportunities in many different areas. There is a section on Horses which has articles, upcoming and archived webcasts, and a calendar of events. Go to eXtension Horse Resources to learn more.
Another resource is the My Horse University (MHU). My Horse University started in 2005 at Michigan State University. MHU brings research and knowledge from world-renowned experts to online courses and products. MHU’s courses provide a comprehensive and convenient learning experience for horse enthusiasts throughout the world. MHU has free webcasts and online courses at a cost. Go to My Horse University. I came across this webcast from My Horse University - Find your Dream Job in the US Horse Industry. This was a very interesting webcast with potential jobs.
