Fundamentals of CCAAT
We have developed in-depth certification program that focuses on joining animals & children to promote healing, connection, and growth. We strive to ensure the safety of both the client and the animal assistant, by honoring the human-animal bond, the attachment needs of the child, all while endorsing the highest levels of professional competence needed to facilitate this sacred work. This training is the first step to certification through CCAATA.
In this introductory training, practitioners will be introduced to CCAATA philosophy, principles, and ethics.
