AMVAC® is pleased to announce the launch of AMVAC Academy, a new online learning management system (LMS) for continuing education and training in agriculture.

Located at AMVACAcademy.com, the state-of-the-art LMS provides retailers, farmers, advisors, and consultants a new opportunity to stay current with technical, agronomic, and product information. Registration verified by AMVAC and a login utilizing the user’s email address and password are required for access to AMVAC Academy.

AMVAC Academy, built in collaboration with Achieva, Inc., features self-guided learning modules across a range of agronomic and horticulture topics. Most modules conclude with self-guided quizzes which allow users to test their knowledge of the subject matter reviewed, log their test scores as they advance through modules and subject areas, and provide proof of participation.

Also in the works are opportunities to earn Continuing Education Units for accreditations including Certified Crop Advisers (CCAs) and state-specific pesticide application licenses such as California’s Pest Control Advisors (PCAs).

AMVAC Academy launches with detailed learning modules in four major course categories:

• GreenSolutions™  
• Herbicides
• Insecticides
• Soil Fumigants

Additional modules and course categories will be added in the coming months and years.

“Education and technical knowledge are more critical to agriculture than ever before,” said Scott Hendrix, Senior Vice President, U.S. and Canada Crop Sales and Application Technology, AMVAC. “We’re pleased to provide access to AMVAC Academy to AMVAC’s many ag retail, farmer, advisor, and consultant customers and partners, and we look forward to continuing to evolve and build out the Academy’s offerings for some time to come.”
