CSDT vs CPDT
Posted on February 6, 2009
i want to become a CPDT. in order to qualify to even take the certification exam you need at least 300 hours of training under your belt. i added up all the time i spent taking classes with liame, all the time i have spent assisting at seattle dogworks and the few customers i have trained for and have ended up with a little over half of the hours required. i thought i would have had more than that but it aint looking good. unless i start teaching soon i wont be able to take the test until next year rather than in september like i had originally hoped. there is part of me that wonders who except for dog trainers actually knows what a CPDT is? i could give myself the designation of CSDT standing for certified service dog trainer (something i have just made up on the fly as i was typing this) and in all honesty the general public would not know the difference between a CPDT and a CSDT. i wonder, why am i so fixated on this designation?
