You could only do the theory side of grooming as a home study case. I would not recommend just doing the theory before starting out grooming. You really need to have practical experience.
Are you wanting to do this as a new career or just to learn how to groom your own dog?

For a qualification you have to have the practical exam. Is there not a local college to you that runs a course?
