Meet the Dean




Welcome to the Horse Grooming College program on horseillustrated.com.



Each month, you can learn the secrets to great grooming. At the same time, you’ll be earning Club Horse points and working toward a diploma that will qualify you for the Horse Grooming College grand prize drawing.

How the Program Works:

  • Registration is free. Simply log in with your Club Horse ID to get started. If you’re not a member of Club Horse, click here to join.
  • Through May 2012, we’ll offer a new grooming course each month with a reading assignment and a video or other class materials.
  • After you complete the class, take the quiz to test your knowledge. (Then take what you’ve learned to the barn and try it out with your horse!)
  • Complete the quiz with a score of 60% or better to pass the course. You can always re-take the quiz if you need to improve your score.
  • When you pass all the classes, you’ll be entered in the grand prize drawing to win a fabulous clipper prize pack from Wahl at the conclusion of Horse Grooming College. 

Take a Study Break
After class, stop by the Student Union for puzzles and games, find college logo apparel at the university store, talk horses in our forums and more. There’s always plenty to do at horseillustrated.com.

Thanks for enrolling in Horse Grooming College, where you and your horse are sure to shine.
