Full Job Description

The Apprentice Groomer position is an interim position comprised of three phases:

Assessment Phase: an initial 1-2 week period working with the Senior Groomer(s) to assess specific areas for training and development. This initial phase will set the expected time frame for training, the scope of training as defined by grooming skill areas, and the structure of training in terms of skill sequencing.
Training Phase: a period of 6-12 months or more in duration in which you will work along side the Senior Groomer(s) to master the grooming skills indicated during the Assessment Phase. The Training Phase will consist of a defined critical path with sequential milestones as indicated by the Assessment Phase. The Training Phase might be in conjunction with more than one Senior Groomer in order to best develop your skill sets.
Evaluation Phase: a phase that will run concurrently with the Training Phase and be measured against the critical milestone path. At each skill milestone, the Senior Groomer will document an evaluation of the skill mastery and the critical milestone path will be updated. Promotion to Groomer will occur when all skills have been mastered and the critical milestone path completed. It is expected that the time required for each person will be different.

Promotion to Groomer: it is expected that approximately 75% of Apprentice Groomers will be promoted to Groomer within 6-18 months of being made an Apprentice Groomer.
