The Alliance of Professional Horse Trainers is proud to host the first-ever Virtual Business Conference for Professional Horse Trainers — a fast-paced, TED Talk–style event designed to deliver real-world business strategies for people who make their living training horses.
For too long, horse trainers have shared the same challenge: finding the time and resources to learn the business side of what we do. This conference was created to change that — giving professional trainers access to proven ideas, financial tools, and practical systems that can strengthen their operations and their quality of life.
