FAF proposes an initial training course of one-year’s duration, comprising 2 three-weeks sessions (February and March, October and November),
with a final exam. Graduated students of the former years are welcomed to continue their training, to help at the Institute and to train to become future instructors.
Successful candidates will receive the Institute’s official certificate.
It is only after 2 years of experience working as a full time farrier that the alumni are allowed for registration to the exams for becoming Indian Qualified Farrier. This Diploma is the highest qualification for farriers. With this Diploma and upstream work with local authorities, we hope to have this profession recognized and raise the status of these farriers to that of qualified craftsmen.
