Bone Idol Academy launches canine nutrition FE courses

Bone Idol Academy has announced it will now offer two professional courses, a Canine Nutrition Pro course, and an iPET Network Level 3 Diploma in Canine Nutrition.

The Canine Nutrition PRO course is aimed at those in the pet food industry, such as retail, to help understand the expanding options available, and how best to position them to their customers.

The diploma qualification, which will be available via remote learning, will teach participants to understand the main nutrient groups and their sources, and the canine digestive system.

The Level 3 Diploma course costs £1,295 and offers nine two hour video lessons and eight coursework modules.

The Canine Nutrition PRO costs £175 and offers two, two hour live video calls and comprehensive course content.

Francesca Ford, qualified Canine Nutritionist and tutor at Bone Idol Academy, said: “The diploma course is perfect for pet professionals and those wishing to follow a new career path.

“Canine nutrition can be a minefield, with so many conflicting claims from brands. But this course enables learners to cut through all the noise, and learn the facts, which can then be used going forward in their career.”

She added: “Having a canine nutrition qualification, or completing the Canine Nutrition PRO course, can be a serious plus point for new customers who are struggling to navigate the world of nutrition themselves, and gives you another way to help your clients live their best lives.

“The pet care industry is growing, and with more dog owners than ever, the demand for quality service and unbiased guidance has never been greater.”
