Short Skills Courses
We offer a number of choices so students can craft their own Certificate, inline with their own needs, or choose from a ready made program.
Both AgriSeta accredited courses and our own specialized programs can be combined, or choose from our own specialist categories.
The AgriWise Institute with their highly qualified and experienced facilitators, moderators and assessors will guide you through both the theoretical and practical elements. Here are just a few of the courses offered.
