Online schools cater to anyone who needs a little extra flexibility. Forget commuting, high tuition costs and strict class schedules \u2013 students work at their own pace here.<\/p>\n
How about some specifics on QC Pet Studies? The online grooming academy offers two main courses – dog grooming and first aid.

QC Pet Studies works with tutors to provide students with feedback during their learning. \u00a0The grooming school employs only industry experts to ensure students receive the best education possible.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”50″][image_with_animation image_url=”7083″ alignment=”” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%” delay=”250″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”2%” bottom_padding=”2%” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” delay=”250″][vc_column_text]\n
QC Pet Studies has a four part philosophy. The first component revolves around quality. The grooming academy provides top quality resources and content. From grooming tools to tutorials and tutors themselves, QC strives to offer grooming students the best quality possible.<\/p>\n
Student support is another core value at QC Pet Studies. Beyond providing top-tier tutors, QC believes in providing student support both before you enroll and after you graduate. If you have any questions, you can contact our student support team at any point. Whether you prefer to chat online, email, or speak over the phone, we are here to help!

We also believe in online course innovation. As a school, we want to consistently work toward the next best thing for our students. Online courses are the perfect way for students to enjoy flexibility. We believe education should be possible for everyone. No matter your situation, we are here to help.<\/p>\n
Lastly, QC Pet Studies values student experience. We think it\u2019s a very important part of the learning process. Our online grooming academy develops relationships with every student. Never be hesitant to reach out to anyone at QC, whether it\u2019s your tutor or support team, we love to hear from you! We encourage students to keep us updated about their progress post graduation, and even ask some exceptional graduates to guest blog<\/a> with us![\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”50″][image_with_animation image_url=”7084″ alignment=”” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%” delay=”250″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”2%” bottom_padding=”2%” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” delay=”250″][vc_column_text]\n Let\u2019s start by discussing our comprehensive grooming course. This is your bread and butter. The course prepares students for successful dog grooming careers. It\u2019s a certified course and successful students will graduate with an International Dog Grooming Professional certificate (IDGP).<\/p>\n Training will begin by teaching you about some of the basics. In order to groom dogs safely you need to know about animal behavior, anatomy, skincare, tools as well as health and safety. This may not be the most exciting part of the course, but it will form your knowledge base for what\u2019s to come.<\/p>\n Remember how we mentioned we have a first aid course? Well, it\u2019s actually included as a bonus in QC\u2019s Dog Grooming Course! This course will take you through handling a variety of emergency grooming situations. From recognizing potential dangers to coping with them, this course is a great asset. We want to prepare you for anything!<\/p>\n The following units focus on introducing you to basic grooming techniques. You\u2019ll learn how to properly clean, trim, brush and dematt coats. These units also teach different grooming styles associated with specific breeds. At this point you\u2019ll know how to talk the talk. Soon you\u2019ll be able to walk it, too!<\/p>\n Now for the fun part… hands on learning! After covering the basics, you have the opportunity to practice the theory you\u2019ve learned. Hopefully, at this point you\u2019ve sourced out some grooming clients. At this stage we recommend your own dog or those belonging to close friends or family. You\u2019ll perform your practical assignments on these dogs and submit them to your tutor. This will allow you to receive feedback and your techniques! Even though constructive criticism doesn\u2019t sound fun \u2013 trust us, you\u2019ll be grateful for it as you begin your career!<\/p>\n The last part of QC\u2019s Dog Grooming Course is business based. It\u2019s optional, but definitely recommended. Many groomers work freelance or go on to run their own grooming salons. If this sounds like something you would like to do, study the material! This last unit will teach you about what it takes to start and run your own business. This includes planning, budgeting and setting your prices. Even if you aren\u2019t ready to start your business now, study up so you have the option in the future. You may just be the best boss you\u2019ve ever had!<\/p>\n If you\u2019re passionate about pets, and want to incorporate this into a career, dog grooming may be perfect for you. There is a lot of flexibility in terms of career paths, and even more in how you learn! QC Pet Studies is here to answer any of your questions.
