With assessments and exams along the way, the self-paced courses are both fun and educational. They are the perfect accompaniment to your own training processes and salon culture.

Why trust us?
After 20+ years running their own successful dog grooming schools, Natalie West and Nicky Renwood decided to join forces and develop their own online hub to elevate the dog grooming industry from great to pawtastic. A place where dog groomers of all levels could learn, improve, and upskill. Where a team of industry experts passed on their knowledge to others in the industry. Since it started in 2017, igroomhub has quickly secured itself as Australia’s go-to dog grooming education resource.
