Industry Mentors

In order to promote and significantly develop the employability skills and specialist knowledge of our students, we have incorporated industry mentors into each programme. Industry mentors are individuals who are successful within the equine industry and have a range of skills and experience to share with our students.

We have a range of industry mentors available to students, but have one specialist industry mentor who is course relevant. These currently include a Master Saddler, International Event Rider, Stud Owner & AI specialist and a Nutritionist/Regional Sales Manager. These individuals provide employability and industry talks to students, offer progression advice, undertake mock interviews and refine CVs and covering letters, along with providing elite work placements and much more!
