Built on years of information on shoes, feet and fitting, the Society of Shoe Fitters' course will give you insight into old and new methods and technology
With the aid of comprehensive notes and media assets, this course aims to teach you how to fit shoes to a professionally recommended standard and empower you to educate and advise your customer.
You will learn how to fit from start to finish and what to consider along the way. You will understand how to measure feet for the best possible shoe fit and why sizes are not standard and straightforward.
Our comprehensive multiple choice testing procedure will help ensure you have learned and understood the content before moving on from module to the next.
When I qualified as a Podiatrist I thought I knew everything about footwear and related issues. How wrong I was! I found the SSF course quite by accident and it opened another world. Shoe fitting seems low on the list of tools for us to use. I encourage you all to put down your scalpels and join the course
The society is a not-for-profit organisation, consisting of members from manufacture, retail and healthcare. It assists both the trade and public in their understanding of well-fitting shoes, shoe fitting and foot health.
