IEEBF: bit-fitting education

There you are in the equestrian shop, looking at the collection of bits that are neatly displayed. There are so many different kinds of bits, with so many different functions. And to top it off, all horses have individual mouths with individual requirements.  How does one know which one to choose for a specific horse and which one will be the best for a certain riding purpose?

A course in the International Education for Equine Bit Fitters (IEEBF) will be able to assist you to answer these questions.  The IEEBF provides training in the field of bit-fitting and has originated from the fields of dentistry and veterinary medicine. The IEEBF focuses on educating individuals about the correct fitting of bits in horses’ mouths with the aim of obtaining comfort for the horse and rider as well as functionality according to the different riding disciplines.

 

IEEBF is a CRKBO registered institution and is accredited by the IAEBF, IGFP and the KNHS.
