Dairy Worker Training Certificate

Dairy Worker Training Series − As dairy farms expand, adding cows to the operation often requires hiring employees with the skills to manage all of the tasks associated with large dairy operations. The UW-Extension Dairy Team created this series to help train and improve the skills of dairy workers, which includes Milking Skills, Reproductive Skills, Calf Management Skills, Herdsperson Skills, Feeding and Nutrition, and Handling Skills.  This award-winning series was designed to fit the specific training needs of dairy producers/employers.

Goals:

• Train dairy workers to perform their assigned tasks in a more skillful, effective, efficient, and safe manner.
• Improve the bottom line of dairy producers while increasing the skill level of dairy workers.
• Increase profitability and competitiveness by improved worker performance.
