In 2023, we offered 13 scholarships for the DTP program, resulting in 9 scholarship recipient students enrolling in the course. When combined with our other scholarship initiatives for KPA courses, offerings at The Karen Pryor National Training Center - The Ranch, and ClickerExpo educational conferences, we anticipate that more than 40 students will have enrolled in one of our educational programs through scholarship funding in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>In 2024, we will maintain our commitment to providing scholarship programs for KPA, as well as for the 2024 ClickerExpo conferences our virtual conference ClickerExpo LIVE in January, our in-person conference ClickerExpo in Portland, Oregon in April, along with our programs and programming from The Ranch in Graham, Washington.<\/p>\n<p>We will continue to evaluate our programming, operations, and offerings for additional opportunities for improvement, and to implement changes that improve accessibility and engagement through our various platforms and brands. In 2023, we expanded our content and featured speakers and faculty from a broader range of communities through our newly launched KPA LIVE classes, ClickerExpo conference programs, and Live from The Ranch broadcasts on YouTube.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, throughout 2023, we continued our support through cash donation to <a href=\"https:\/\/careawo.org\/\">Companions and Animals for Reform and Equity Inc (CARE)<\/a>. CARE prioritizes and amplifies BIPOC and other Marginalized Voices through Narratives, Research, and Community-Centered investments.
