english riding levels

Hi everyone.

To start of i'm just saying sorry for my spealling mistakes.

I was wondering if in england there were horse riding levels that you can pass ? Or need to have to work with horses ?

If yes, how many levels are there ? And what do you have to do in each level and know ?

Hi, Blackie, and welcome to the forum!

I am not sure if this is what you were asking, but the British Horse Society offers several levels of certification for instructors and for horsepeople in general:

Horse Owners Certificate
Stage 1
Stage 2
PTT
BHSPTC
Stage 3
BHSAI
Stage 4
ITT
Stable Managers
Senior Equitation & Coaching
BHSII
BHSI
FBHS

The most well known are the BHSAI Assistant Instructor's, and the BHSI, the Instructor's. You can find out more about them at www.bhs.org.uk

Maura, thanks that's what I was looking for. Because in france there are 9 levels : galop 1, galop 2, .... and so I was wondering the equivalent in england. Thanks for your arnser
