Clinicians

Each year Averett hosts a number of clinics with riders, trainers, and industry professionals. Not only does this give our students an opportunity to learn from some of the most respected names in the equine industry, but it is also a great networking opportunity. Many of our students have obtained internships and formed business contacts through their interactions with on campus clinicians. Some clinicians from recent years include:
