Here is what you get when you join the Equine Business Management Course
Prior to commencing the ‘Equine Business Management’ course, we recommend that you complete the ‘Own Horse Business’ course.
Alternatively you may already have a business that is running at a profit (after you have deducted a realistic salary for yourself), with a business plans for the next three to ten years, have hard copy systems and documents in place with financial statements and other details up to date and ready for review.
Your ‘Equine Business Manager’ is focused on the management of an equine business and does not include horse care, horse riding or teaching units.
If you would prefer to include these units in your course, please contact us about customising your equine business course.
Some of your ‘Equine Business Manager’ areas of study are;
- Review business systems – To Save Your Self, Time, Energy and Money (SYSTEM), you will review your systems in order to maximise your efficiency and minimise your effort. Financial efficiency is an important consideration in this process
- Review business plan and budget – In your previous course, you have completed a plan for your business, but using the principle of ‘CANI’ (constant and never ending improvement) you business plan is reviewed and checked to see if it aligns with your desired business, financial and lifestyle goals
- Improve your business plan. – Once your business plan has been reviewed to find the areas where it is not aligned with your business, financial and lifestyle goals your strategies are revised. Then where necessary, new targets are set to achieve your desired goals
- Review your finances – Here your finances are reviewed with forward projection to confirm there are available finances for the set targets in marketing and new business innovations. Strategies are discussed to improve cashflow to achieve these targets
- Multiple streams of income – To assist with the cash flow of the business, further income sources are discussed with up-sells, down-sells and cross-sells to your existing customers as well as new innovations and ideas to broaden your customer base.
Measuring results – When you are working on a budget, it is natural to want to cut your expenses but this can cause the downfall of a business. In particular when you are marketing, it is important that you measure your results. You have already covered low and no cost advertising, but in this unit we also consider the result of time versus the result it produces to find the most effective marketing for your individual equine business- Balancing priorities In this unit we focus on balancing your personal priorities and your equine career.Horse business can be a chosen lifestyle. However just as a high level performance horse needs to have some time off and some ‘down time’ to perform at their peak you also need to plan your lifestyle around your equine career.
- Delegation As you take on the manager role and learn how to work on your equine business as a manager, not in your equine business you will learn what tasks should be delegated to your staff/ contractors.
- The business team As you expand your operations and delegate more tasks it is important to consider your business team. You will learn about choosing the people in your team who will carry your branding through to the public as an extension of you
- Manage your public relations Members of the public may meet with members of your team. The way they present themselves and the way they present your business can make or break your operation. In this area of study you will learn important staff training strategies to implement so that the public views your business positively
- Pinpointing potential customers In this unit we visit the demographics of your current customer base to see if they are the ideal customer. Your ideal customer is defined and strategies set up to bring more of the ‘ideal customer’ to you business
- Non-profit Even non-profits need to run at a profit! In this area of study you will learn about the benefits of having a non-profit area of your business. It may be a club that is closely involved with your business or a non-profit arm of your business. It could be that you complete business is a non-profit organisation.
- Sponsorship/ fundraising The more that non-profits engage the community in their activities, the more the community can support them through the use of sponsorship and fundraising. You must remember that if you run both a non-profit and a business, they are two separate entities. However they can work together to benefit both parties. In this area of study you will learn about sponsorship/ fundraising opportunities.
- Long Term Business PlanPrior to completing your study, we again visit your business plan to confirm that you have a viable long term business plan that reflects your business, financial and lifestyle goals.
Bonuses
We want to be the best Online Horse College in the world! To do this we need students to give us feedback on how we are going and how we can improve. To encourage you to enrol in this course and to give us the feedback so we can continue to improve, we are offering the following bonuses
- Bonus Summary Lessons – Just to make sure you have repetitive learning, on completion of all the above areas you will be taken to four more bonus ‘summary’ lessons where you will be re-assessed in all the above areas. This will confirm your knowledge about horse care and have you ready to receive your qualification.
- Bonus Weekly Tutorials – This bonus is probably worth more than the course itself! How much do you pay now for your weekly lessons? Each week you have the opportunity to come on a teleconference with one of our professional equine experts They are usually with a qualified riding instructor, but they could be with a Veterinary Surgeon, a Farrier/ Blacksmith or another person who specialized in a particular area related to the equine industry. If you have a question about riding or another horse related subject, we can usually answer it in the weekly phone tutorials.
- Bonus Recordings – We are building a library of recordings of interviews with equine experts. These recordings will be available to you free of charge once you enrol in any of our courses. The weekly tutorials are also recorded and you will have access to previous calls with our equine experts
- Bonus Ebooks – To complement your course and expand your knowledge, we also have a library of horse related ebooks that you will have access to. Many of these horse care ebooks have been written by Specialist Veterinary Surgeons and Blacksmiths/ Farriers.

Your Graduation
When you graduate from the ‘Equine Business Manager’ course, you will receive the qualification ‘BSB50215 Diploma of Business’.
Depending on your chosen course and your University, this qualification can give you credit (up to one year) into your University study.
How long will my course take?
This course has been designed to be taken part time, over 47 weeks. However, it could take less time if you already
- have previous experience with horses
- plan to study for more than 20 hours per week
- plan to study full time
If you already have previous experience and would like to study full time, this course about learning to care for horses will probably take around a month. Simply let us know if you would like to ‘fast track’ your course!
Of course you may take longer if you like and your enrolment will be valid for up to two years. If you would like to re-enrol for a further two years, just contact us for your updated enrolment details.
Where and how is my course delivered?
All lessons are delivered online through your secure web page with a range of resources such as
- Workbooks
- Extension Lessons/Homework
- Video Tutorials
- Power Point Presentations
- Student Resources
- Other Student Support
- And Much, Much More!
A combination of practical skills and theoretical knowledge are the main requirements for this qualification and these skills will be developed throughout the course.
The theory component is assessed through Online Horse College and the practical component may be completed by RPL from prior qualifications, references, third party reports or practical assessment. Otherwise you can upload a video and email us the link with your self and peer assessments. The cost for the practical assessments is paid directly to the assessor.
This ‘Equine Business Management’ course will be much more straightforward if you have easy access to an equine environment where you can regularly practice your skills
You will also be able to have regular phone tutorials during the course. In these you can ask us about any particular questions about Equine Business Management, even if it is not specifically included in your course.
Who will supervise my assessments?
Although they will need to be confirmed with us, when you complete most of your online assessments, you will know the results immediately! If you are not happy with the results, you simply take the online assessment again!
If you already have a horse care teacher or equestrian coach, they may be already qualified to supervise and/ or assess your practical assessments or even give us a ‘Third Party Report’. (There is an application process for assessors that must be completed prior to your assessment) Other people who may be qualified to supervise and/ or assess could be the owner/manager of your stable, or someone-one else you know who has considerable experience with horses.
If this is not possible we can also assess your practical skills with horses and ponies by video. Simply upload or send us a video to view so we can complete your assessment.
You will also be required to ‘self’ assess and ‘peer’ assess your practical activities with horses. A ‘peer’ may be some-one with around the same experience as you with horses. They act as a ‘mirror’ and mark off your checklist as you complete your activities.
We may also conduct some verbal assessments during a phone call or phone tutorial
Some of these assessments may be simulated when it is impractical to assess in a realistic setting.
Will I be accepted into this course?
This online horse course is part of our ‘Career Pathway’ and suitable if you already have substantial experience with horses. If you already have extensive knowledge handling and caring for horses you can contact us for an RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) Application.
Alternatively you may have sufficient life experience (at least 18 years) in lieu of the educational qualifications.
This course is delivered and assessed in English, so if English is not your first language you should be able to read, write, listen and speak the English language in an excellent manner prior to enrolment so you can maximise your learning.
If you believe you have equivalent pre-requisites to enter this course, or a very good reason why you cannot meet these pre-requisites, please contact us to discuss.
