The Horses Helping Humans™ Program became licensed in 2016 due to the high number of enquiries from all around Australia asking if the program was available in other states. The Horses Helping Humans™ name is now synonymous with professional training as it is known as a results-based program.
It is the only Certified Training Trademark for Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) in the country and the high standard that is requested by the ACCC. Our entire program has to be delivered and assessed to ensure ongoing compliance and safety. This includes certification of all horses in the program.
Licensees receive full training in all aspects of the program. Requirements to deliver the program include:
-
a high level of horsemanship ground skills *
-
a high level of people skills
* Online Horsemanship training with Mandy Probyn is now available to ensure your skills are at the required level.
In the role of a Horses Helping Humans™ Facilitator you are assisting Youth workers, Social workers, Youth Justice Case workers and Family services with some tools of awareness. These are skills they can take on and continue to use within their future counselling sessions with youth clients. Most young people attend with their case workers.
All of the Intellectual Property of Horses Helping Humans converts beautifully into Adult Workshops including Team Building and Women's Workshops.
This program is not a counselling service or equine therapy. It is specifically designed to teach communication skills and body language awareness using personality profiling. Each horsemanship skill we teach has a psychological base which introduces students to techniques for focusing, lowering anger and anxiety and developing an awareness of human to human communication which they can use for the rest of their lives.
Understanding the differences in each personality type and learning to read body language gives participants the life skills to notice when others are becoming reactive. Learning the skill of diffusing is one of the many skills taught through the program that youth workers identify as having a big impact on their participants’ outcomes.
