UNDERSTANDING

With the adoption of the NCAS Syllabus for the Australian Stock Horse, the Society has entered the world of formally accredited programs and coaches. This is a trend that will increase in importance in the future. Coaches therefore have certain responsibilities and obligations to the Society that include dealing with the public in a manger fitting of an accredited Coach.
