ADVISORY PANEL 
________________________________________________________________________ 
 
 
The Academy is honored to have such distinguished members of the equine community on our Panel.  Their insight and input into the curriculum is invaluable.  Advisory Panel members review, critique and contribute materials to ESA courses in their area of expertise. 
 
It should be noted that Panel members and the Academy are completely separate and independent entities.  The Academy is not a representative or agent of any panel member or organization, and panel members are not agents or representatives of the ESA unless specifically noted. 
 
The Advisory Panel do share our deep commitment to research and education in continually seeking knowledge that will allow us to better care and provide for our domesticated equines.   For more information please visit their websites -  links are provided below.
