Also at the Farm Science Review on September 17, 18 and 19 will be several programs that include Certified Crop Adviser CEUs. Continuing education is an important part of what makes a CCA so valuable to their clients. At FSR this year we have credits available in the Agronomy plots on the east end of the grounds, at the Small Farm Center on the west side of the exhibit area and north on SR 38 at the Gwynne Conservation area. All credits are included in the admission price to enter the grounds – you just have to sit, learn and then sign-in to get them.

See the FSR educational events page for CCA CEUs in the Agronomy area and in the Small Farm area: https://fsr.osu.edu/sites/fsr/files/imce/pages8-12.pdf; and at the Gwynne: https://fsr.osu.edu/sites/fsr/files/imce/FSR-2019-Program-Gwynne-AUG8.pdf. I know the credits are not specified for the Small Farms Center, but you know what to look for.
