Practicum Requirements - Groomer Technician Course
Below are the hands-on requirements for the JKL Groomer
Technician Course. There are no specific 'required hours' for the
practicum as students generally progress at their own,
individual rate. Some are able to complete portions of
the practicum on their first try, while others might
feel more comfortable submitting work from a subsequent
try.
Contact your local animal shelter or rescue group for
possible practice pets. Many
unwanted or uncared for animals are in great need of
grooming, and it has been my experience that the
majority of shelter operators are happy to oblige in
such a mutually beneficial situation.
If your community does not have an animal shelter, often a notice on the public bulletin boards in your community will bring you all the practice pets you will require to become proficient.
lf you plan on seeking salon employment, large corporate salons often hire JKL groomers in training, so you can actually train while on the job. Some smaller salons will do the same, depending on their current needs.
