Beyond Riding Lessons

RISE Framework education for riding instructors — teaching instructors to work the Regulating Triangle in every lesson. Delivered through a YouTube teaching series and an online course.

RISE with Dogs

A career-formation program in dog-assisted, social-emotional practice: twelve months of online study with an in-person Colorado intensive, building toward a two-tier credential, RISE Trained and RISE Certified after supervised practice hours.

RISE with Dogs is in development. A Certificate of Approval application to the Colorado Department of Higher Education, Division of Private Occupational Schools (DPOS), is in preparation; the program will not enroll students before approval.

Professional development & partner-delivered courses

Courses designed and taught by OKOYA's founder, delivered under partner organizations' names — the Israeli precedent: a trauma-support course for AAI professionals delivered with Retorno, among roughly 200 students trained under partners' names. This is the model offered to US colleges. CE Partnerships →
