About Tromplo

TROMPLO: LEARNING SCIENCE FOR ANIMAL TRAINERS

Tromplo is an online learning platform founded by animal trainer and behavior analyst Agnieszka Janarek. It is built for professional trainers, serious training enthusiasts, and caregivers who want more than a collection of exercises: they want to understand how learning is constructed.

Our courses translate behavior analysis and current research into practical systems for observation, antecedent arrangement, criteria, reinforcement delivery, stimulus control, and troubleshooting. We examine the training design before blaming the learner, and we use errors as information rather than something the animal must repeatedly experience in order to learn.

Tromplo's goal is ethical, precise, usable teaching. Beginners receive a clear path; experienced trainers gain a structure they can apply across behaviors, learners, species, and environments. Each current course page states its format, feedback level, price, dates, and access period clearly.

Our values guide everything we do at Tromplo, and these include:

Learning Science in Practice

We use behavior analysis, careful observation, and the best available research to examine what the learner does, what the environment makes likely, and what consequences shape the next repetition. Theory matters because it should improve the decisions we make in real training sessions.

Ethics, Agency, and Clarity

Positive reinforcement is not only about what we deliver after behavior. We arrange antecedents, criteria, and consequences so successful responses are accessible and unnecessary confusion is minimized. We make room for choice and agency without turning labels or assumptions about internal states into explanations.

Systems, Not Recipes

Tromplo teaches reusable systems for defining behavior, breaking complex skills into components, planning criteria and reinforcement delivery, and troubleshooting when training stalls. Dog-training examples lead the work, but the principles generalize across species.
