“My experience in the Beckman Coaching Program has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I truly believe I was meant to be here. It came at a time in my life when I was unsure of whats next and how to start my own business and career in dog training. I remember hearing Joel announce the program and thinking to myself, this is what I need to become a dog trainer.
It’s been a journey that has allowed me to grow in so many ways, both in my training knowledge and in my personal life. I’ve been able to go in depth on countless training concepts and topics through the videos, weekly live sessions, and the community section with other dog trainers where I’ve received so much support.
One of the hardest parts of starting a business can be feeling alone, so having the weekly support and insight from Joel in his live sessions — where he provides not only solutions but also encouragement — has made a huge difference compared to if I were doing this on my own.
I’m so glad I took the chance to invest in myself and in this opportunity. It’s brought clarity and understanding in what it really means to be a great dog trainer.”

Living Proof K9 Training
“The Beckman Coaching Program offers excellent value for the time and money spent. The Course includes Weekly (recorded) Lives with Mr. Joel Beckman; Community Q&A; Instruction in The Beckman Dog Training System which has been proven effective with thousands of difficult dogs; Helper Dog training techniques; High caliber teaching videos; Kind, respectful feedback for any videos and questions we post to the Community; the list goes on. I have taken other trainers’ classes, but the BCP is the program I am finding the most beneficial for my dog training skills and my business. Mr. Joel Beckman is honest, encouraging, and shares every detail with us to help us to learn, understand and implement his unique system for helping dogs in a kind, humane way. Â
Taking this Course is clearly the best money I have ever invested in myself and my business.
Personal Background: I have been working with dogs since 1991 & training dogs professionally (part time) since 1997. I have been watching Joel's YouTube Videos since 2019, and when I heard that this Course would help me develop my rescue Rottweiler into a Helper Dog so I could help the more difficult dogs, I eagerly joined the BCP in April 2024, when this Course was first offered. Â I am actively involved in the BCP post-graduate program, because there is always more to learn and explore in this amazing field of work, plus I love helping fellow students!
Sincerely, ”

"Loving To Please" Dog Training
 "I joined the Beckman Coaching Program because I wanted to start a dog training business in my retirement. As a professional engineer for over 35 years, I needed a program that is evidence based and systematic. It needed to deal logically and effectively with difficult issues like aggression, reactivity, separation anxiety, and resource guarding, without resorting to aversive methods. Joel Beckman delivered on all of that and more. He is realistic and practical. He likes dogs. He treats everyone with respect. He has worked with SO MANY dogs. And importantly (for me) he is always curious, and always ready to hear new ideas that he can use to continuously improve his methods. The Beckman Coaching Program gave me the tools and the ongoing support I need to help people with their dog's complex behavioral issues. That's a big deal. Dogs are good for us and sometimes people need help. Now I am helping those people. Feels good.”
