This program is intended to provide agriculture educators, technical service providers, and advocates with a solid baseline of regenerative grazing knowledge so that they can advocate for best practices, appropriate application, and the associated benefits in their states and the U.S. Upper Midwest. The material in this course is most relevant to those working in the Midwest, but individuals from other states are invited to apply.
Participants will be expected to complete an eight-week self-guided online course, attend weekly virtual meetings, participate in an online discussion group, and complete pre and post assessments both hosted on the Regenerative Ag Idea Network (REGAIN). This is a commitment of approximately 35-45 hours from the week of November 6 through the week of January 22, 2024.
