Abstract
Our multistate group of state horse specialists produced and evaluated impacts from six webinars and onlineshort courses (webinar plus additional content) addressing current industry issues: pasture-associatedlaminitis, equine herpesvirus-1, disaster preparedness, sales fraud, rescues/rehoming, and manuremanagement. We identified no differences in perceived knowledge gained from webinars or short courses;however, results suggest that participation in short courses versus live webinars may be more useful formaking positive management decisions. Short course participants also reported greater potential for costsavings as a result of completing the education. On the basis of the study, we offer recommendations fordeveloping effective online Extension education programs.
