Exemplary Riding Skills? - No Problem for Lucy!
Lucy Millward, a second year BTEC National Certificate in Horse Management student at Herefordshire College of Technology’s Holme Lacy campus, has recently achieved her Pony Club B Test Certificate. To successfully pass the test, the rider must demonstrate a high level of competence across all areas of horsemanship including exemplary riding skills, as well as excellent theoretical knowledge. Lucy is a member of the Wyre Forest Pony Club. Studying for the Horse Management course has provided Lucy with expert training, experience of riding a wide range of horses and a thorough understanding of horse husbandry, biology and working within the Equine Industry.
Lucy commented “I am really pleased to have achieved the high standard required to gain my Certificate. The Equestrian Centre at HCT offers a professional and friendly environment in which to study and develop your riding skills. There is an excellent range of horses, from novice school masters to competition standard. I have really enjoyed the course, the teaching modules in particular, and will be pursuing a career in teaching when I leave this summer.”
