Essential Training Track
The Essential Training Track Badge is earned when the member has completed essential behavior training courses that are important foundational behaviors for trainers to have a fluency in. These behaviors will increase the bird’s skill level and behavior repertoire in many aspects of its life. The Essential Training Track badge is a requirement that precedes earning other track badges.
