Competent instructors, who possess not only practical expertise but also the didactic and pedagogical skills to impart this knowledge, are the fundamental prerequisite for any high-quality training. Therefore, we are delighted to welcome new, skilled hoof trimmers to the world of instructors, as hoof care is one of the cornerstones of cattle's quality of life and productivity.
Opportunities for professionally sound instructor training are very limited in Europe. Since 2020, the HBLFA Raumberg-Gumpenstein, in cooperation with European Hoofcare, has offered the first diploma course for instructors of functional hoof care within the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) at the high school graduation level. This high level of education is unique.
