From October 27-28, 2023, the FEIF Education Committee had a very productive meeting at the Committee Meetings 2023 in Frankfurt. Current members of the group are: Bea Rusterholz, Herdís Reynisdóttir, Nicole Kempf, Silke Feuchthofen (FEIF Director of Breeding), Svenja-Lotta Rumpf (Young Committee Member) and Ulrika Backan.

The major focus of this year’ meeting was on the FEIF strategy and the definition of goals and subgoals for the future of the FEIF Education department.

The FEIF trainer/instructor seminar which was originally planned for March 2024, will now take place in October 2024 in Sweden. More details will follow as soon as available and disseminated via the FEIF media. To discuss joint topics and future seminars, the committee meetings had joint meetings with the Youth and the Leisure Riding committee.

The FEIF “Trainer/instructor of the Year” award will be set up as in previous years and all FEIF member countries are asked to be prepared for nominations of candidates.
