Have you ever wanted to be a cowboy or cowgirl?  In Australia there are no cowboys or cowgirls; it’s Jackaroos and Jillaroos down here, mate!

If you dream of becoming a Jackaroo or Jillaroo, Australia has many courses to choose from that train people to become Jackaroos and Jillaroos enabling them to seek employment on ranches.  Some even offer assistance in seeking employment after completion of the program. 

Some of the skills you’ll learn include Whip Cracking, Aussie Horsemanship, and Sheep and Cattle Mustering.  You don’t need experience as the courses can be tailored to meet your experience level.
