Tell us more about these courses you offer, who the target audience is, and how the course participants benefit from attending.
We offer a course on Seed Biology, Production and Quality that is targeted toward professionals in the seed and related industries. This intensive 2-day course presents both basic seed science and its application to seed production, handling, storage and utilization. It is a good introduction to the field for those new to seeds, and gives an overview of the latest research developments for experienced professionals. This course will be offered next in February, 2003.

In November, 2002, we will offer a course on Identity Preservation in Agricultural Production and Marketing. This 1-day course will cover the basics of identity preservation and specific cases such as market channelling and segregation of organic commodities and products of biotechnology. As identity preservation is essential to achieving higher market value, this course will be valuable to many segments of the agricultural and food marketing industry.

We can also develop customized courses for client groups on specific topics. This is a good way for a company to combine a meeting of research or sales personnel, for example, with continuing education.
