Practicum Tests

Practicum tests are a key component of the Athletic Equestrian League, providing riders with the opportunity to demonstrate their practical horsemanship skills in addition to mounted performance. By incorporating practicum tests into competitions, the AEL ensures that riders are not only skilled athletes but also responsible and knowledgeable horsemen and horsewomen, reinforcing the league’s commitment to developing complete equestrians.

The practicum tests are based off of the CHA Horsemanship Manual which you can purchase by clicking here.
