Learn about our courses
-
All students who complete our training receive a Dog World Grooming Academy Certificate of Completion. We are not affiliated with external awarding bodies such as City & Guilds.
We have created our own training method, shaped by real salon experience and focused on the breeds and coat types most commonly seen in the modern grooming market. Our approach prioritises safe handling, correct techniques, and the health and wellbeing of each individual dog, The goal of our training is to prepare students for real-world grooming with confidence, care, and professionalism.
-
Training takes place at our grooming studio in Winchmore Hill, Enfield (N21). We’re a few minutes’ walk from the station, close to local bus routes and parking. The space is calm, small-group based, and designed to help you learn with confidence.
-
We keep our training small and personal, with only a few students per intake. This gives you a very high student-to-teacher ratio, meaning more one-to-one guidance, hands-on practice, and tailored support throughout your training.
-
Instead of formal tests or exams, we focus on ongoing feedback and development throughout the course. We guide you closely, give honest and constructive feedback, and regularly ask you which areas you feel confident in and which you would like to improve. This approach helps you build real confidence, strong practical skills, and self-awareness as a groomer.
