Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024
This unit is applicable to those working in the companion animal industry sector where training classes may be required to assist owners with modifying undesirable behaviour traits for a range of breeds and species. Training may include behavioural training in obedience, agility and socialisation conducted in group sessions, and will generally take place in public open spaces.
In addition to legal and ethical responsibilities, all units of competency in the ACM10 Animal Care and Management Training Package have the requirement for animals to be handled gently and calmly. The individual is required to exhibit appropriate care for animals so that stress and discomfort is minimised.
This unit of competency covers the process of developing, conducting and reviewing training classes for companion animals and their owners.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
