Become a qualified microchip implanter
ChipHERO Implanter Training
ChipHERO’s course combines microchipping theory with practical assessment and ongoing support. We offer locations around the UK, along with the option of training in your own home.
We have training locations throughout the UK. Courses are taught in small groups or on a one-to-one basis, in a friendly, relaxed environment.
Whether you are a breeder, looking to microchip your own litters, or you would like to build a business microchipping for others, our aim is to educate, not to sell microchips or to sign you up to our database. We want to give you the tools to make your own informed decision, that is best suited to your needs.
If you do decide to sign up with ChipHERO we can register you the same day and send you home with free chips. We will provide details of our generous commission and incentives.
Course Structure
The course consists of a theory section and a practical element. It is important to us that we are able to train in small groups to ensure we go at a pace you’re comfortable with.
We are here to support your goals and to ensure you leave us feeling confident. Once the course is completed, we are here to offer support and answer questions anytime.
The course will cover the theory of microchipping for both cats and dogs. Most locations can provide access to puppies for the practical element on the day but may need you to bring an unchipped cat or kitten to qualify to microchip cats (this can be done at a later date).
Check the Qualification Scope
The lawful route to implanting depends on the animal and the UK nation in which you work. In England, the regulations describe approved training routes separately for dogs and cats. Confirm that your certificate and practical assessment cover the animals you intend to microchip. Read our UK microchipping law guide and cat-specific guidance before booking.
Note: If you have any special needs that may require additional support we will happily accommodate them where possible. If you need support with the written portion of the test we can provide someone to work one-on-one with you.

I am excited to share the course with you. I developed it around the applicable training requirements and the practical needs of breeders and implanters.
I am the owner/founder of Fair Hero Fertility; a successful clinic and cryobank, shipping frozen canine semen around the world. I am a licensed breeder and have produced a UK and International Champion, so I understand the needs of breeders and implanters.
I am passionate about what I do and am a firm believer that we all have to start somewhere. For me, every day is a learning day, and I am excited to share my knowledge and passion for what I do with you. Your success is my success, so know I am always here to help x
