Education

Our agricultural community never stops learning.

Education Opportunities

VCAILG connects our members with workshops and classes to continue learning and meet annual education requirements in compliance with the Agricultural Conditional Waiver. All VCAILG members need at least 2.0 hours of approved water quality education each year. Attendance at one of the following classes will satisfy requirements for the current year of the waiver term. Unless otherwise noted, all classes are free.

Please follow the links for more information and/or to register for the classes/training/workshops. Remember to bring your VCAILG ID# with you or send it with your designated representative to ensure that your operation receives attendance credit.

Upcoming workshops will be added as they are scheduled. Check back soon and make sure you’re subscribed to the VCAILG email list for upcoming workshop announcements.
