CONTINUING EDUCATION

Welcome to the American & International Associations of Professional Farriers Continuing Education Program - another foundation of the AAPF/IAPF. This program clearly establishes a purpose, scope, baselines and definitions upon which we will build a new standard of education for our industry.

We recognize that the requirements described below may be foreign to some, we are committed to including all persons described under the definition of "Farrier" and all types of Continuing Education in the program.
By committing to a minimum of 24 credits of Continuing Education per year, accredited farriers at all levels will maintain their accreditation and illustrate their deserved recognition within the industry.
