Code of Conduct for Certified Instructor/Trainers, Recognized Teachers, Associate Instructors

As a USDF Certified Instructor/Trainer, Recognized Teacher, or Associate Instructor, and member in good standing of the United States Dressage Federation (USDF), I acknowledge my obligation to uphold the highest standards of horsemanship both at home and when in the public eye.

As a horseman, I place my rider's safety and horse's welfare above all else.

I will support the rules and policies of USDF, USEF and when applicable the FEI.

As a USDF Certified Instructor/Trainer, Recognized Teacher, or Associate Instructor, I acknowledge the importance of continuing my own education in order that I may pass this knowledge to my students.

I understand that as a USDF member and USDF Certified Instructor/Trainer, Recognized Teacher, or Associate Instructor, I serve as a representative of my sport, the USDF, and the USDF Instructor Certification Program. As a USDF Certified Instructor/Trainer, Recognized Teacher, or Associate Instructor, I will serve as a positive example through my conduct, dress, and behavior by maintaining a professional demeanor.

I further understand that any USDF member suspended by USEF will be considered a USDF member not in good standing during the period of suspension. During this period, such person will be ineligible to participate in USDF programs, including having his/her name removed from the list of Associate/Certified Instructors, Instructor Workshop Faculty and Instructor Certification Examiners.

I acknowledge my membership in this professional community and my responsibility to demonstrate respect for my fellow professionals at all times.

Fees, Continuing Education information and the Code of Conduct must be received no later than November 30, 2024 for Associate Instructors, Recognized Teachers and Certified Instructors to continue to receive their benefits package.
