The Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) has released its newest edition of Standards for Equestrian Programs. This is a complete rewrite of the former Standards for Group Riding Programs produced by CHA.
There are new vaulting, trail, driving, equine facility manager and instructors of riders with disabilities standards that have been added.
This manual lists standards for a safer equine environment. These standards are intended to serve as goals in order that facilities and/or individuals can develop an individualized program designed to promote safety.
If you are creating your own equine program and facility from scratch or updating your existing ones, this manual can help you evaluate your own program, management and site standards to make sure you are headed in the right direction.
