| Tell Us YOUR Story |
|
|
There is no one better qualified to encourage our students than someone who has personally experienced and met the challenges of distance learning. Many students need inspiration, motivation, and support just to enroll, as well as continue with and complete their studies. So, if you have a story and would be willing to share it with us, just like Ginny O’Shea did above, email your story to [email protected], or mail it to Jim Healey, c/o Penn Foster, 925 Oak St., Scranton, PA 18515. We would love to hear from you. |

According to the American Pet Association, there are 44,892,454 dog owners in the United States who own a total of 62,995,801 dogs.
If you love dogs, perhaps you should consider a career working with dogs. The Penn Foster Dog Obedience Trainer/Instructor program prepares students to work with dogs and can lead to a new career working for a kennel or obedience training school. You can even start your own business! Animal trainers teach pet owners the art of handling their animals and even train dogs for security or law-enforcement work.

“I just wanted to share my story relating to my studies with Penn Foster. I recently completed the Dog Obedience Trainer/ Instructor program. I really enjoyed it and have been inspired to continue learning more and more about canine issues such as health, diet, and behavior problems.”
