Edified – Education Grants

September 9, 2020 by Christine Meunier 1 Comment

I love the word edify. It means “to instruct or benefit, especially morally or spiritually; uplift.”  As an alumni of CSU, I have recently been made aware of Edified Energiser Grants for 2020.  They are now open.

As it states on the Edified grants site:

“Helping you help others: ‍at Edified, we believe education can transform lives. We also believe that powerful change can be led by individuals with passion and commitment. We’ve created the Edified Energiser Grants (EEGs) to energise people working to improve education around the world.

EEGs are worth A$5000 each and are awarded to individuals or groups with a compelling plan to improve education for their community.”

As always, when a particular resource, business or skill captures my attention, I question how it can be used in the equine industry.  So here’s a question for you: could you make use of a $5000 grant for equine education?

The plan could be small – becoming a teacher in your community. It could be a grand plan – creating a new EdTech platform to bring free education to world. Or anything in between.

“EEGs are open to people of any nationality (domestic and international) who are currently studying at, or have graduated in the last 5 years, from an Australian, New Zealand or UK Higher Education, Vocational or English Language institution (part-time, online and offshore campuses accepted). Your project can be delivered in any country in the world.”

Applications close October 31st!

Sister School Business Education Program

July 10, 2020 by Christine Meunier Leave a Comment

I am so thankful to still have work amongst the COVID-19 situation. But with the current environment, it appears there are many, many entrepreneurial opportunities!  One such in North East Victoria is the ten week Sister School Business Education Program.

Sister School is a ten-week business education program that provides the practical knowledge and support needed to start or grow your business. Whether you have an idea, too many ideas, an existing business or an early stage business, Sister School is for you!

I would love to sign up and check it out but have too much on currently. I have just finished Grace Lever’s free Five Day Challenge and am working on turning my Wealthy Christians ebook into a course. July is Camp Nano and I have also just finished Free Rein #10. I am working on another book over July also.

And then next week I am doing another free challenge – Amazon Ad Challenge Schedule & Prize Giveaway. July is busy but I love all these chances to learn new skills!

But back to the education program this post is about. It’s aimed at helping women turn a business idea into a business.

So how to contextualise this to horses?  There are so many careers that can relate back to horses!  And many of these I believe could be set up as a small business:

  • equine writer – author of fiction or non fiction; journalism, blogs, articles, etc
  • horse photographer
  • equine related artist
  • social media marketing / website design for horse businesses
  • graphic design

In the midst of this climate where many have lost work and been made redundant, maybe the above program is just what you need.  And if not, perhaps you may know of someone who could benefit from it?  Be sure to spread the word.

Free Mini Course with Equiculture

June 5, 2020 by Christine Meunier Leave a Comment

It’s been quite awhile since I have utilised LinkedIn. I recently logged in on my phone and started to catch up on connections and endorse skills. A recent post from Jane Myers of Equiculture caught my attention: Equiculture free mini course.

It isn’t news to regular readers that I love to learn. And I especially love learning about horses! And hey, if a course happens to be free… then I am all for it!

A quick follow of the link shows that you can sign up via email to gain access.  When you do, you gain access to seven videos that explore horses and grazing.

Now the cheapest way to feed horses is with good pasture.  And Equiculture well and truly know pastures.  Their business is focused on effective, sustainable pasture management for horse owners.  They spend their time educating owners and developing resources to help them manage horses effectively.  I think their business idea is a fascinating one and interesting topic!

Free Mini Course with Equiculture

If you are not familiar with Equiculture, why not check out their free course? The best way to learn about an equine business can be to make use of one of their free products.

And while you are at it, if you’re on LinkedIn, why not connect with me? I am always looking to connect with those in the Equine Industry or with those who are trying to get establised in it!

Fast Track Program (THOROUGHBRED BREEDERS AUSTRALIA)

March 6, 2020 by Christine Meunier

It’s no secret that I am such a large fan of the thoroughbred breeding industry.  So I wanted to share that applications have been opened for the Fast Track Program for 2020.  I saw this advertised recently on the Racing Jobs website.  Further research on the Thoroughbred Breeders Australia website indicates:

Looking for an exciting career with horses?

  • 12-month traineeships on offer
  • Work on a respected stud farm
  • Get paid to study a formal qualification
  • Kick-start your career in the thoroughbred breeding industry
Fast Track Program | Equus Education

Want to find out more about the fast track program? You can check it out on their website. They also state:

A limited number of applicants will be selected to take part in the 12-month program which incorporates a mix of on-the-job training and formal study.

If successful, you will be assigned to a reputable stud farm where you will be employed via a full-time traineeship. You will also be enrolled in a Certificate III in Horse Breeding; a nationally recognised qualification.

Over the 12 month period, trainees will attend two intensive learning blocks (6 weeks in total) with the first block commencing shortly after enrolment. These blocks are designed to provide the theoretical knowledge needed to complement the on-farm training.

This formal aspect of the program will take place in Scone NSW, which is in the heart of one of the world’s biggest breeding centres.

Thoroughbred Breeders Australia Fast Track Program

You can apply for the Fast Track Program online. Applications close March 13th.

Perhaps it’s a sign of an obsession that I would apply for this in a heartbeat and surely love it! Even though I already have horse breeding qualifications at the Certificate III level and higher. There is nothing quite like learning about horses, travelling, gaining a qualification and also networking in a great industry!

Jenquine – Equine Nutrition

February 26, 2020 by Christine Meunier

Towards the start of this year, I was made aware of an equine nutrition website.  It is called Jenquine.  Their tagline is:

“bringing science to your feed bin”

Catchy, isn’t it?  When you combine feeding horses and a vet’s understanding of horse nutrition, things can get interesting.  When this information is provided to you – the horse owner – this is even better.

Equine nutrition is a vast and also interesting topic. It is also one that needs to be understood at a basic level to be able to provide horses with the best possible nutrition and care. The key role of Jenquine is listed as dealing with this side of things. They work to educate horse owners about equine nutrition with the view to developing healthier horses.

Now I’m always up for learning and free resources. So in light of this, you may like to check out their media page and the Clinical Equine Nutrition series (1-8). The first video is provided for you below. You may also like to check out their resources page that has a lot of nutrition related articles to read.

These cover things such as:

  • Septicaemia
  • Stomach ulcers
  • Liver failure
  • Big head in horses
  • Caterpillar Caused Abortion
And so much more

There are so many equine businesses set up on the Internet these days. And through this, there is a wealth of information that you can utilise and also benefit from. Why not take a look at Jenquine and the resources that they have to offer in regards to equine nutrition as well as education?
