Shell Egg Academy returns to in-person

Registration is now open for the Shell Egg Academy.

The Shell Egg Academy in-person edition from Purdue University Extension is open now for registration. Join us September 27-29, 2022 at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, for SEA, which will provide interactive class sessions on egg quality and food safety for farmers and egg companies producing and processing table eggs.

A new-and-improved three-day schedule provides a deeper dive for companies looking for training on:

  1. Shell egg food safety on the production side
  2. Sanitation
  3. Food borne illness outbreaks
  4. FDA’s Egg Rule
  5. Egg quality impacts
  6. Table egg industry trends from a consumer perspective

SEA will also provide plenty of networking opportunities with industry participants, regulatory agency personnel and Purdue University animal science students and faculty throughout the event. At the end of each course, participants take an exam to earn a competency certificate.

“The 2021 Shell Egg Academy’s virtual edition provided a high level of information and interaction for participants seeking to further their knowledge about egg quality and egg safety,” said Dr. Darrin Karcher, SEA founder and associate professor and poultry extension specialist at Purdue University. “We’re excited to build upon this success and provide this redesigned learning opportunity to fit the needs of the egg industry right now.”

If you pre-registered earlier this year for the in-person SEA that was postponed in April, your registration automatically transfers to the September event at Purdue University.

Sponsorships are also available at a variety of price points for companies wishing to show their support of the egg industry.

SEA’s hotel room block at the Holiday Inn City Centre in Lafayette, IN, is also available online and by phone (765-423-1000) for reservations. Room rate is $139/night. (Please mention “Shell Egg Academy” when booking by phone.)
