GOOD COMPANY
Evidence you can question.
We organise published offers to help you make a training decision. We do not award an overall suitability score, independently certify trainers or sell a better evidence label.
What each label means
- Basic listing · details incomplete
- A provider and service are identified from a direct source, but the programme does not meet the research threshold. These records stay in a separate, collapsed section.
- Website details checked
- We reviewed the stated offer and can link the facts to a source and date. This is not independent confirmation of credentials, quality or capacity.
- Business representative confirmed
- Reserved for a completed review of authority to represent a business. None of the current pilot providers has this status. It does not verify quality.
The programme threshold
A researched programme needs an editorially accepted source, the correct service, area, goal, delivery type and review date. It also needs at least three known decision fields: price with inclusions, teaching language, methods/equipment, age eligibility, or dated capacity/intake. Unknown age remains unknown.
Ordering and filters
Known exclusions are applied first. Researched options appear first, then the latest review date and a stable internal identifier. An English website never establishes English instruction. Unknowns do not satisfy positive filters unless you explicitly include unconfirmed information. Budget comparisons use the chosen price unit and advertised amount; taxes and travel may still be extra.
Payments, affiliate status and breed alone have no influence on ordering. No paid positions or active affiliate offers are present.
Freshness and corrections
Capacity needs a check every 30 days, prices every 90 days and stable details every 180 days. Expired research loses the current researched status and enters the research queue. Corrections are free. Contact the operator or use the business confirmation form.
Sources and welfare
The Madrid training programmes are independently written summaries of provider-published facts. The Spain directory (/es/directorio) is different: it lists businesses as they appear in public Google Maps listings, collected in September and October 2026, plus dog areas and shelters from OpenStreetMap and Madrid city open data. We publish name, address, phone, website and hours, never Google ratings or reviews; order is alphabetical, nothing is paid, and a listing is not an endorsement. Businesses can ask us to correct or remove their listing at any time. This is an editorial publication decision, not a claim of a commercial data licence.
Our preference for reward-based methods follows the AVSAB humane training position. Provider method statements remain attributed claims.
