Weaning the Thoroughbred Foal: Key to Successful Rearing is an online course presented by the Thoroughbred Breeders' Association (TBA), offering a comprehensive guide to this essential stage of rearing.

Through interactive modules, expert video insights and practical tools, this course explores the when, how and why of weaning. Learners will understand the latest approaches in maintaining growth, fostering resilience in foals, minimising stress and - ultimately - shaping healthy racehorses and future breeding stock.

Whether you're an employee, breeder, manager or equine student, this in-depth course provides the knowledge and confidence to implement best practices and evaluate the effectiveness of your weaning strategy.
