USDF/USEF Young Rider Graduate Program

Save the Date!
USDF/USEF Young Rider Graduate Program Weekend Seminar
January 18-20, 2008
West Palm Beach, Florida

The Young Rider Graduate Program is designed to help bridge the gap between young rider status and the professional world of international competition, teaching, training, and equine business management. The curriculum provides eligible participants information for a "seamless" transition from the ranks of a young rider to that of an adult amateur, professional, or high-performance equestrian.

The program's format is a two day educational seminar that focuses upon relevant topics such as fundraising, sponsorship, grant opportunities, insurance, ethics, business management, international competition, goal setting, and leadership. Key USDF and USEF personnel discuss the roles that both organizations will play in their future professional lives.

Funding support for the USDF/USEF Young Rider Graduate program is generously provided by The Dressage Foundation.
