Chris Doran, Equestrian Tourism Co-ordinator said, "We are delighted that this pilot exam ran so smoothly and all candidates were successful. This new examination will be hugely beneficial for all who take rides out."
These qualifications have been especially developed to provide industry relevant, recognised standards at three levels for those working in equestrian tourism - Assistant Ride Leader, Ride Leader and Riding Holiday Centre Manager.
Everyone, from those who escort hacks, treks, trail rides or work within the equestrian tourism industry to anybody taking a riding holiday, should consider taking these qualifications.
A very big thank you must be given to Liz Andrews and the staff at Northfield Farm Riding & Trekking Centre for the accommodation and smooth running of the examination.
