Kinder Hoof Care Academy Trimmer Training 2025
3-Day Essential Skill Building & Refresher Training
The Kinder Hoof Care Academy Trimmer Training is a 3-day hands-on hoof trimming course for farm staff or professional trimmers and veterinarians who want to gain experience and understanding of maintenance trimming and treating lesions. *
Last training offered for 2025: Columbus, OHIO October 8-10
You will learn and practice:
- Principles of hoof care
- Functional hoof trimming
- Therapeutic hoof trimming
Participation requires:
- Watching training videos (approximately 3 hours of pre-work) prior to the first day of the course.
- Practicing biosecurity - Wearing clean clothes and coveralls, and any additional biosecurity measures taken during the training.
*This training is intended for farm caregivers, veterinarians and hoof-trimmers (to be or already trimming). Limited space is available to industry related folks interested in learning the basics, but without intention to trim or train other trimmers. Space is limited to 2 per training at $1500 per ticket.
KHCA is brought to you by Kinder Ground and made possible by the generous support of our donors. The true cost to deliver a trimmer training is $2,000 per person. All donations made through this event page will be dedicated to supporting this and future trimmer training.
Cancellation must be made 4 weeks prior to training for a full refund (minus credit card service charge), otherwise refunds will be granted only if the space can be filled.
