English language training for FEI Officials and Grooms

All FEI Officials are expected to speak and write English. Good command of English ensures that Officials communicate properly with all stakeholders in order to guarantee a level playing field at FEI Events.

The FEI is aware that this requirement is not always easy to fulfil for quite some FEI Officials, due to culture, personal circumstances, and availability of English language training.

Furthermore, with Grooms being such important key players of our sport, the FEI is happy to support all Grooms willing to improve their English proficiency.

In this section, FEI Officials and Grooms have the opportunity to learn spoken and written English online. This service is provided by a company called Rosetta Stone, one of the most powerful, award-winning and intuitive language training programmes around.

The FEI offers all FEI Officials and Grooms who are in need of language training a one-year subscription for a subsidised price!
