American Collegiate Horsemen’s Association (ACHA) unites collegiate horsemen of all levels and disciplines through the promotion of leadership, education, service and national affiliations. ACHA hosts a national convention each year to bring student and chapter members together to learn more about the horse industry and develop their leadership skills through tours, panel discussions and other networking opportunities. The organization also recognizes outstanding chapters and students through annual awards.
ACHA welcomes students from any four-year or two-year equine programs in the country. If you would like more information about the organization, the benefits of membership or how to start a local chapter, visit our Membership page for more information.
We'd like to take a minute and remind everyone about our largest national undertaking this year, the Equine Career Highlights.
We are requesting that chapters work to select a person that has a career within the equine industry that is unique to your school or state and interview them about what they do. We will then take the information collected from the interview and turn it into a post to be shared on our social media to spread awareness of all the jobs you can do working with horses.
More information, such as careers and interview questions, can be found in the ACHA Fall Post Guidelines and Instructions which can be found linked in our monthly emails. If you have any questions, you can reach out to us! We hope you decide to be a part of this special project!
