The Advanced Certificate in Mare Intimate Health has been developed to support equine intimate health practitioners in deepening their knowledge and professional practice in relation to the mare as a distinct clinical subject. While the Equine Intimate Health Diploma provides a strong professional foundation, the mare presents a range of anatomical, physiological and hormonal considerations that warrant dedicated specialist study at an advanced level.
