  3. Introduction Why cooperation? • Questionnaire of SHP-E (NL) for the European qualification framework of the Leonardo project and the questionnaire of Aaizoo were more of less similar • To make sure that the population would not have to answer two similar questionnaires

  4. What we did • Research of literature • Eight in-depth interviews with professionals who offer equine assisted interventions • An online poll, for which different means have been used to gather as many respondents as possible

  5. What we got • Much information through the Eight in-depth interviews (also by observation) • Much information through the online poll which contained open questions as well as multiple choice • 179 respondents joined the poll, of which 129 answered all questions

  6. Results About 300 professionals who offer equine assisted interventions in NL

  7. Results Equine assisted interventions in NL kan be defined in: • Therapists: equitherapy, hippotherapy, training on skills etc. • Coaches: personal growth, employability etc. • Trainers: training managementskills, communicationskills (for company’s) etc.

  8. Results • 83,5% company 78,7% single person (ZZP) • 6,3% organisations (non-profit) • 1,6% offers education for equine assisted interventions

  9. Results • 68% of the providers has been launched after January 1, 2007 • 1st quarter 2011: 12 new providers • 87% of new providers after 1.1.2007 offers coaching and / or training, 9% is equitherapist

  10. Results Education and training: • 33% is only qualified to “human area" (coach, psychologist, trainer, HRM, etc.) • 25% is qualified to “human area" and “horse related education”, independently • 26% has certification in “human area" and followed also training for horse assisted interventions • 6% have diplomas in “human area" and “horse related education” independently, supplemented by training for equine assisted interventions • 3% has only “horse related education” • 1% has no relevant vocational training and / or diplomas

  11. Results Opleidingen • 23 times : ORUN (Opleiding Ruiter Unie Nederland), this is education forridinginstructorordrivinginstructor • 15 times : Education in NaturalHorsemanship, likeParelli, Monty Robertscentre and Hempfling • 12 times : Educationequi-therapistfrom SHP-E NL • 12 times : EducationSystemicEquineCoachingby bureau Wind • 9 times : NHB Deurne (Nederlandse Hippische Beroepsopleidingen) Equinestudy at secondaryvocational level • 4 times : Education EAT (EquineAssistedTherapy) in Gent, Belgium

  12. Results Riding and/or driving: • 64% does riding and/or driving • 39% has a qualification as instructor (riding, driving or vaulting) • 6% has a Dutch certificate for safety

  13. Results Welfare of the horse: • All respondents regard their horses as their trademark • Therefore they have the intention of ensuring their horses‘ well-being • There are no specific legal regulations on how this goal should be achieved • Everyone works on the horse's well-being based on their own vision and convictions

  14. Conclusions • A concise answer to the research questions cannot be given • The field of providers of equine assisted interventions is currently in full swing • As a result of the rapid increase in the number of providers, a process of market positioning is triggered, in which providers are making efforts to make themselves stand out

  15. Conclusions • The work field becomes increasingly unclear to care givers, care recipients, government and the professionals themselves • The lack of uniform terminology, protocols, and quality criteria, stand in the way of a good development of this field • Defining standards in different areas, for providers to cling to and which will eventually separate the wheat from the chaff is necessary

  16. Questions? Copies of the summary of the research are available
