It feels great to have graduated two times from Penn Foster already... I am mostly proud of myself for the fact that I’m Certified in Pet Grooming and Certified in Natural Pet Care and can used them both to succeed in my grooming business.

I liked that you could move at your own pace during the program. Everyone should be entitled to learn at their own comfort pace, Penn Foster agrees with that. They really help you with anything you may be dealing with and the lessons are very clear and give you a very in-depth understanding of the lessons.
