The Dairy AdvanCE system is completely online – viewing the clearinghouse of training offerings, tracking and managing the CEs, and the reporting of your CEs on your transcript.  We do not tangibly send your CEs to you, but rather secure them and house them on your private, secure Dairy AdvanCE account.

The trial period does end automatically and there is no auto-renewal feature available.  No credit card payment information is asked until you renew, following your trial period.

If your subscription lapses, your account will be held inactive.  You will not lose your CEs.  Rather, you just won' t be able to access, manage or report till you renew your subscription and re-enter your private, secure Dairy AdvanCE account.

If your training was pre-accredited with Dairy AdvanCE, yes, you can find and secure CEs from past trainings. From your Dairy AdvanCE account, click "Find Trainings>Past Trainings" and review the full listing to secure your credits. Upon review from your training provider, your credits will be released and visible on your private, secure Dairy AdvanCE account.

Contact us right away through the "Submit a Training" form or call 800-947-7379.  If time permits before the training start date, we will work with the training provider to review and potentially approve the training for CE credits.  If accredited, you'll be able to see the training in "Future Trainings" before the start date, in "Past Trainings" after the end date, and will be able to collect and secure your earned CEs.  If the training start date has past, the training cannot be accredited.

There are many scenarios in which farmers can value from tracking their continuing education.

• Time of crisis (messaging that you and your team have continuing education)
• Expanding/Transitioning (increases credibility to lender)
• Policy/permitting (increases credibility with DNR and other conservation groups)
• Insurance quotes or on-farm accident (showcases continuous improvement and safety are high priority)
• HR management (allows you to track and review your employees past and future trainings through shared access feature)

The list could go on and on. Here are the thoughts from some of your peers and industry allies.

This is a very important number – releases your CEs to your account.  When attending Dairy AdvanCE accredited trainings, you will be asked by the training provider to complete an "Attendance Sheet," which validates your attendance, breakout sessions, and CE allocation total.  You will be asked to write your subscriber number on this Attendance Sheet so that the training provider can identify you from others with the same name, and assign your CEs directly into your account accurately.
