I have been loving the course so far!They present the information quite well and it has been an enjoyable learning process.
The syllabus is an excellent starting point for anyone serious about becoming a GOOD cat groomer. Its very informative, and intensive, which is exactly what you need. I highly recommend it to any of my peers. You'll learn a lot!
The Syllabus has been a game changer for me. I had been grooming cats already with some training, but I was woefully unprepared to deal with anything but the perfectly behaved cat. I now handle the spicy ones without trouble and my clients cats all go home looking like they belong on show.
This courses has helped tremendously and gave not only knowledge also skills . At first I doubted myself but the syllabus gave me all the tools I needed to started feeling more confident working with cats . I am still learning but I a learned a lot, I am still studying and always going through all the information because is so valuable for me , learning is a process I wouldn’t be able to do it without the syllabus
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Transformational Journey! 15 years ago, I stepped into the grooming world thinking I’d be clipping pups—but life had other plans! Thanks to this incredible syllabus, I found my true calling and became one of the few certified feline master groomers in Australia. The transformation has been night and day: I went from uneven, untrained shaving to delivering crisp, pristine, prestige-level cat grooming. I genuinely wouldn’t be where I am today without this level of education. Forever grateful!
I learned a lot and I recommend it to everyone. The best decision ever!! I love my job❤️🐱🐈🇵🇷
Thanks to the skills I’ve gained from the Syllabus, today’s cat client not only looked amazing—she looked better than ever, according to her owner. After trying several other groomers, the client said this was the best result yet and immediately booked every 6 weeks going forward. It’s rewarding to see my grooming results impress both cats and their humans!
I wish this kind of information was around when I had cats as clients who I thought were the spawn of satan….. reading on how to properly restrain , if I knew back then what I know now… grooming experiences would’ve been a whole lot better.
I love these courses. I’ve been grooming cats for quite a while but I learn something new every day. At dinner each night, we sit at our table and my husband has now started asking “Ok, Courtney, what’s the new cat fact of the day?” And I love it. haha. Thank you for building such a user-friendly online course too! Sometimes online learning is confusing! You put this together very well.
I was one of those groomers who only did a cat if it was “nice” or had been groomed before, and I’d only offer lion cuts or nail trims and never fully dry – Fast forward to now …still learning but my confidence is way way way up! I now take on all cats when the owners come my way, even those the owner wants to stop getting sedated and try a groomer willing to attempt without. I feel less frustrated and more educated.
