Why there is a need for the CFBA & CIDBT courses

The Canine & Feline Behaviour Association (CFBA) is the professional voice of the pet behaviour practitioner, representing an unparalleled body of knowledge concerning the care, training and behaviour of dogs and cats in the UK. Our members and associates are drawn from the top ranks of the profession with a common commitment to maintaining the highest possible standards. From them we select the course teachers for the Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour & Training, (CIDBT).

We wish to encourage new people to enter our profession and to learn from our experienced members. The Cambridge Institute of Dog Behaviour & Training is the first education faculty in Britain with courses taught hands-on by CFBA members or fellows with either at least ten years' full time experience in dog behaviour or training, or who have demonstrated an outstanding personal knowledge in canines that they can impart.

We have been concerned that the courses on offer in Britain at present either do not relate to the profession in reality or have been just put together and run by part-time people with little teaching experience. This is not good for new enthusiasts or current professionals who wish to learn more and update their knowledge as practitioners.

With CIDBT you are able to join courses that have been written and managed by people who are experts, with unrivalled success in this field, who have worked with the public in frontline behaviour & training.

CFBA and CIDBT courses represent the future for professional practitioners and our aim is to help as many students and current fellow professionals qualify as soon as possible.
