Certificate Courses
Our Certified Humane Education Specialist (CHES) program
is a series of online self-paced certificate courses that
guide participants in setting the foundation for an
effective humane education program.
They're based on extensive research and feature engaging activities, a wealth of practical tips and strategies, and materials for participants to
utilize. Upon successful completion of the program,
participants are eligible for CHES certification.
CHES will help teachers, administrators, board members, humane education specialists, and humane law enforcement officers enhance their credentials and use their limited time and resources in the most effective ways possible.
