We are excited to announce the launch of Australia’s first free online Assistance Animal Ambassador Course, designed to educate handlers, trainers, businesses, and community members about the legalities surrounding assistance animals in Australia. This comprehensive course covers federal, state, and territory laws, and how these laws intersect to protect the rights of both assistance animal handlers and the public.

 

 

Written and verified by industry professionals and legal experts, this course provides a reliable resource for understanding the complexities of assistance animal regulations. Whether you are an assistance animal handler, a business owner, or a member of the community, this course will help you understand your rights and responsibilities under Australian law, particularly regarding the identification of assistance animals and recognising their public access rights.

 

The course is now live on our website and is a valuable tool for anyone unsure about the legalities involving assistance animals. Completing this course will not only equip participants with essential knowledge but will also allow them to display our Assistance Animal Ambassador logos and receive a certificate of completion.

 

Best of all, this course is completely free of charge. We extend our gratitude to our alpha and beta testers, whose valuable feedback over the past 12 months has been instrumental in refining the course.
