All of the ‘CO’ courses act as qualifying courses for the Advanced CDP COAPE Diploma.

Please note that South African students cannot enrol directly through COAPE UK for any COAPE course and must enrol through ThinkingPets.

The following courses are ideal for anyone who wishes to further their study of the science of animal psychology and behaviour and will help students on their journey towards becoming qualified companion animal behaviourists. Students with no prior experience in this field may also enrol for these courses. Only students who have completed the Diploma are recognized by COAPE as qualified animal behaviourists.

Students may enrol at any time. Enrolments are closed between 16 December and 1 January.
