Frequently Asked Questions

Is this free for commercial use in my lesson program?

Yes — download and use it freely across your entire lesson program. Print as many copies as you need for all your students.

Can I add my barn’s logo or branding?

The PDF is designed to be printed as-is. For custom branding, we recommend opening it in Adobe Acrobat Pro or a PDF editor to add your logo before printing.

How often should I complete a progress report for each student?

Most instructors find quarterly reports strike the right balance — frequent enough to track meaningful progress, infrequent enough to show real development between assessments. Monthly works well for intensive programs.

Do you have a matching training session log?

Yes! Pair this report with our Training Session Log for a complete documentation system for your lesson program.
