Horseshoeing isn't just about putting shoes on horses. Shoeing horses is
a skill and an art developed over years of practice, often improved, but
never perfected. No one knows this better than Max
Williams who has not only achieved the highest level of certification
possible under the America Farrier's Association certification program,
but also has a Masters Degree in Equine Science with an emphasis on horseshoeing.
Combine these professional certifications along with more than 40 years
of farrier experience, teaching certification in several states, and practical
teaching experience from University level on down, and you will be hard
pressed to find any other horseshoeing or farrier school with a more qualified
teacher.
Shur Shod's horseshoeing and farrier training program has been developed
with the focus and attention to detail required to give beginning horseshoers
the foundation of knowledge and skills required to be successful farriers.
Our school can also provide experienced farriers with the training required
to hone their craftsmanship.
Shur Shod Horseshoeing School's farrier education program has been certified by the Brotherhood of Working Farriers Association as a Master Educator School. This means that students that attend Shur Shod's farrier school not only get the highest quality training, but they also have the opportunity to complete the exams required by the BWFA for certification.
With on-site housing, and a maximum of six students per session, our farrier
school provides students the opportunity to be fully immersed in the learning
experience. Shur Shod's horseshoeing education program focuses on hands
on, practical training, allowing plenty of one-on-one interaction with our
teaching staff.
