The Kennel Club Accreditation Scheme for Instructors in Dog Training and Canine Behaviour
Welcome to the Kennel Club Accreditation Scheme for Instructors in Dog Training and Canine Behaviour, the first and only Scheme in the UK for Instructors to be approved by City & Guilds NPTC!
For the first time in the UK, instructors involved in teaching dog training and advising on canine behaviour will have the opportunity to gain a nationally recognised, credible and externally verified qualification. Dog owners and dog training enthusiasts will also benefit by having the reassurance of a national standard to ensure that they are provided with the best quality advice and service.
The aims of the KCAI Scheme are as follows:
Quality – The UK’s quality benchmark for instruction and teaching in the canine world
National - The Kennel Club is the first and only approved centre for issuing national awards in dog training and canine behaviour in the UK.
Unique – All aspects of an instructor’s experience – both academic and ‘real life’ - count towards accreditation.

Clubs & Trainers Insurance
The Kennel Club has introduced its new Insurance Schemes for Canine Clubs and Societies and Dog Training Instructors in co-operation with Agria Pet Insurance Ltd. Because they were drawn up by the Kennel Club, the policies truly reflect the needs of canine clubs and societies and dog training instructors and training clubs - expertise that other policies and insurance companies might find hard to match.
