The interactions of electroweak gauge bosons are severely constrained by the symmetries inferred from low energy observables. The exploration of the dynamics of electroweak symmetry breaking requires therefore both an experimental sensitivity and a theoretical precision that is better than the natural scale of deviations from minimal extrapolations of the low energy effective theory. Some techniques for obtaining improved theoretical predictions for precision tests at a future e^+e^- linear collider are discussed.
