Norma Jeanne created CCS – Canine Correspondence Studies: Professional Dog Trainer Certification Career Courses in 1994 to help students realize their dream of becoming a highly qualified and respected certified, positive dog trainer, behaviour therapist and/or aggression therapist. She was tired of dog owners and dog trainers making excuses for abusing dogs in the name of dog training. NJ made it her mission to teach the importance and application of scientifically proven and positive dog training, behaviour therapy and aggression therapy in order to nurture well-trained dogs while protecting their temperament and emotional wellbeing. She has since trained over 700 quality positive dog trainers in 17 countries and the CCS family of positive dog trainers and behaviour consultants continues to grow worldwide.

Norma Jeanne is a published author, Founder & Chair of the International Positive Dog Training Association, former Editor in Chief for the Canadian Association Of Professional Pet Dog Trainers, and content contributor to numerous industry magazines including Pets and Animals, Dogster and Animal Wellness. The CCS dog training courses are well-known and highly respected by dog guardians and professional dog training experts around the globe.
Norma Jeanne created touch-free and fear-free dog training, behaviour and aggression therapy programs using motivation to nurture mutual trust and respect, and to teach dogs to think for themselves and make correct choices. Her science based dog training philosophy is that dogs learn to problem-solve and choose desired behaviours in order to affect a pleasant outcome or obtain a valued resource. With repetition, the dog will default to the desired behaviour. Positive does not mean permissive. Self-control is taught, and respect is mutual when utilizing benevolent leadership, resource control and a thorough understanding of canine communication. When we nurture trust and mutual respect we create a well-trained dog with a resilient temperament while protecting its emotional wellbeing. Norma Jeanne lives in the countryside of beautiful North Eastern Ontario, Canada with her partner Greg Ceci and their beloved dogs. She looks forward to guiding you to a happy and fulfilling life and dog training career of your own. Visit our curriculum page to find out what you’ll learn.
