More training dates announced for our courses.

This week we are pleased to publish the remaining training dates for our popular industry based training courses for 2014.

Our Greenhouse Crop Technician's Course is a 4.5 day course that covers a wide range of basic growing issues, and is unique in that it interacts closely with the use of the Priva Integro / Connext climate management system.

Participants gain first hand experience in using the Priva system as part of their studies as each student has their own computer terminal to use, and operate.This is made possible via the fact that we have 11 additional site licences for our own system. The students can interact with the system and get a really good feel for both navigation and operation of a live system.

Our next course is scheduled to commence on Monday the 8th of September, followed by two further courses commencing on Monday the 13th of October, and the last one for the year on Monday the 24th of November. Details of the September course are listed below.

For new growers looking to enter the industry or gain a better insight in to the area of Tomato growing, our one day Introduction to Commercial Tomato Growing Course provides a highly suitable training day. 

The course covers a wide range of topics that are related to Tomato growing and also allows the participants to undertake a close inspection of the De Ruiter 'Living Proof' growing trial that we host at the Cranbourne Campus.

This is a theoretical and practically integrated course that allows participants to gain hands on skills in both the crop and climate management areas as well as theoretical skills to complement these practical applications.   

Our next course is scheduled to commence on Monday the 15th of September followed by a further course on Monday the 17th of November. Details of the September course are listed below:-

 

Finally, we will also be running our one day Introduction to Computerised Greenhouse Control course. This training day allows the participants to interact closely with the use of the Priva Integro / Connext climate management system, as well as using a Priva Maximizer system for part of the study.

This course is designed for participants that want to learn more about computerised climate management, and for those who are considering installing such systems.

As with out Greenhouse Crop Technician's Course, the participants gain first hand experience in using the Priva system as part of their studies as each student has their own computer terminal to use, and operate.This is made possible via the fact that we have 11 additional site licences for our own system. The students can interact with the system and get a really good feel for both navigation and operation of a live system.
