HUMANE SOCIETY AGENT TRAINING

The Ohio Animal Welfare Federation offers Humane Society Agent training three times per year in compliance with OAC 109:2-15-02 using curriculum approved by the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission. It is intended only for persons who have been approved by a county humane society to become a Humane Society Agent, other law enforcement, or others who are associated with a law enforcement agency and have a legitimate need for this information to promote animal welfare. Completion of this training is only the first step in becoming a commissioned Humane Society Agent. All Humane Society Agents must:

  1. Be appointed by a county humane society organized under section 1717.05 of the Ohio Revised Code; 
  2. Have that appointment approved by either the mayor of the municipal corporation or the probate judge of the county where they intend to serve; and  
  3. Comply with all other requirements provided by law. 

 When available, the dates for this training will appear in the list above. Questions? Contact us at ohiofedhs@gmail.com or 614-270-8030.

Use this form to tell us about the conference you want to attend, and how attending will help you help animals in Ohio. We will select ONE person to support PER conference, until our scholarship budget is depleted for the year.
