There is a lot of information that needs to be updated. Some of the documents that were supposed to be available "in the Resources section" are nowhere to be found. Some of the links given do not connect to the correct document, others are just missing entirely.

I am not sure if spending so much of my time on this course was a good decision. The certificate I recieved states that I attended "an online non-credit course authorized by University of California, Davis and offered through Coursera" . I am not sure how much credibility is given to a "non-credit" course for employability purposes.

It is one of the best courses I've been through so far. Thanks a lot to Dr. Claudia for mentorship.

very happy I was able to do this at home and was very pleased with what was covered.

extremely informative would recommend to anyone wondering about equine welfare!

Wow! I thought I knew a lot about horses but after taking this course, I realized that I knew very little. The content was thorough but digestible for the average person to understand. I loved the videos where she used Joe as a model to show equine anatomy, how to check vitals and even how to give medicine. This course covered every stage of the horse’s life and common issues. I found that I couldn’t bring myself to watch the videos in week 6, but thankfully it was transcribed. I wish I could afford to get the certificate because the education in this course is work it. I hope you enjoy it as much I did. Thank you Dr. Sonder and associates.

I did not find this course as challenging as I hoped. However, I am not a horse owner and I definitely learned some important things and feel that this class was definitely worth my time. I now understand so much more about owning a horse and basic healthcare.

Course seems great but you are unable to complete it (even without a certificate) without paying. Only found out after completing the first week of content that I wasn't able to do the quizzes and complete the course.

So avoid unless you want to pay.

I appreciate coursera community on organizing such a wonderful course . I learn many new things from this course . This course is helping students in providing direction regarding their future . Being a veterinary studnet i encouraged myself to go on equine practice side in future , though there is no scope of equine industry in our country( Pakistan ). Moreover , i will opt futher more courses about Equines by yours . Thank you very much for providing such a great opportunity . Thank you very much

Kind regards

Informative for someone who hasn't had much experience with horses. Not as challenging as I had hoped, but still a good thing to review what I know. Good for people who have no knowledge about horses to someone with about intermediate knowledge.

This course is solid in its information, interesting in its presentation, full of good resources, and able to be paced to fit in with my work schedule. It was definitely worth my time and effort.

everyone who owns a horse should take this course.. it is essential knowledge to advocating for your horses we'llfare and safety and also improves your relationship building with horses.

This is a really great course for beginners interested in horses. I'm really glad I took this course, and I look forward to applying this knowledge in future volunteering opportunities!

Beyond my expectations,it was more than a basic or introductory course,it covered all materials even though not in full details(expected ).Great I took the course.Easy to understand.

Lots of information about basics of equine management. The major problems faced by owners and the manage-mental practices for better herd management.

I think it is a great course for those who are novice to horses. As well, it is informative to those of us who have had horses for many years.

Even with my years of horses, this is a great refresher. And I learned some new things too!!!

I am learning a lot from this course but I do not like how I would have to pay to take a test.

it’s necessary to pay to do the tests.

Dear Dr. Claudia Sonder and the UC Davis Coursera Team,

I want to express my sincere gratitude for offering the "Equine Welfare and Management" course. While I may not have prior experience with veterans or horses, your course has been instrumental in equipping me with the knowledge and understanding necessary to pursue my mission.

The comprehensive education provided in this course, especially regarding the psychology of horses and their specific requirements, has been invaluable. I now feel more confident and prepared to contribute meaningfully to the welfare and management of horses in my region.

Dr. Sonder, I am genuinely thankful for your guidance and expertise. Rest assured, should I be fortunate enough to secure a research grant or any opportunity related to equine welfare, I will not hesitate to seek your advice and input.

Furthermore, I extend an open invitation to you and the team to consider visiting India. Our university, UPES, offers a warm and hospitable environment, and it would be an honor to host you.

Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for this enlightening course. I appreciate it immensely.

With warm regards,

Dr. Varun Pratap Singh

First, I want to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of this course and earning a certificate. I am positive that I will utilize what I have learned from taking this course. The instructor eloquently mastered delivering crucial topics that every horse owner or handler needs to know and understand to promote outstanding care and management for our horse partners.

Second, I will definitely be taking more courses to gain more knowledge and skills to assist me in being successful to complete my endeavors to propagate an equine ranch that will benefit both the equestrian and the community.

Lastly, I am grateful for finding Coursera online because without your website this wouldn't have been possible. This an amazing academy and I commend your facility and faculty for honoring students, like myself, to administer major steps to excel and achieve our quest in life. Thank you, Coursera.
