We believe we can achieve more together than we can alone. It's why we created мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Academy; a place where people from shelters of all sizes from across the world can come together for learning, guidance, and support.
Together, we learn from one another on what we can do to have an even greater positive impact on the lives of dogs and cats, and how we can ensure the people and organisations caring for them are at their most effective.
About мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Academy
Since its first course in 2018, мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± Academy has provided collaborative learning opportunities to more than 1,200 staff and volunteers, representing shelters and rehoming organisations in 56 countries.
We do not believe cost should be a barrier to learning and for the majority of individuals and organisations, our learning opportunities are free.
Who can join
If you are a member of staff or volunteer, at any level, in a dog or cat shelter or rehoming organisation, based anywhere in the world, then our learning opportunities are available to you.
Achieving more together
From initially offering just one animal welfare course, our calendar now features a wide range of learning opportunities, focusing on three key areas: the animal, the human, and the organisation.
These are delivered by experts from across our sector and beyond, as we aim to create relaxed learning environments that give everyone the opportunity to share their experiences – attendees repeatedly tell us that they value learning from other shelters as much as they value learning from the trainer.
As we know that your time is precious, many of these learning opportunities are two hours or less, with the majority delivered online or as e-learning.
The knowledge I have gained directly benefits the dogs and our community in Bulgaria. By collaborating, I can take ideas back to my organisation.
