Whether you are interested in operating your own farm, running an agricultural business, or gaining employment in the agribusiness sector, the Farm and Industry Short Course program might be a wise alternative to a four-year college degree program.

The Farm & Industry Short Course Program is a 16-week educational program uniquely designed to prepare students for exciting careers in agriculture. We offer over 35 courses in the areas of soils, crops, dairy, meat animals, agricultural engineering, farm business planning, agribusiness, human relations, and communications. Students in their 1st year will earn a Certificate in Foundations of Farm Management, which can serve as a prerequisite to earn a 2nd year specialty certificate in a more specialized area.
