British Wool has announced that its shearing courses are now live on its website.
British Wool shearing courses are tailored to different individual levels of ability, from absolute beginner (Blue Sea) to an advanced stage (Gold Seal).
Course content is designed to achieve several individual objectives – from shearing your sheep flock more efficiently and effectively, building foundations for career entry opportunities, and supporting entry at global competitions of the highest standards, British Wool.
British Wool has machine shearing and wool handling courses to suit all classes of trainees.
However, anyone wanting an advanced machine shearing course should contact Emma Jagger or Richard Schofield to obtain a booking on code, British Wool said.
One-day machine and blade shearing on-farm training courses are also available ranging from those having no experience to professional shearers travelling the world.
Shearing manager Richard Schofield said: “British Wool shearing courses are live on the website as of February 1, 2024, we have had a good response so far and it’s great to see that the YFC members are working with British Wool to take advantage of our offers.
“Some have booked on to our on-farm training – courses which provide training at any level to those with no experience to more experienced shearers travelling the world.
“Thanks to all our members over the years within British Wool for supporting shearing training and giving the industry the shearers to shear our UK flock. “
