SEA is a unique learning experience and education opportunity for individuals who work in egg production and egg processing. Through a combination of interactive classroom experiences taught by expert speakers as well as hands-on learning, participants in SEA are provided the latest information on egg quality and egg food safety.
Virtual SEA is beginner course on egg production and processing that focuses on egg quality information useful for employees who work in egg barns and processing plants. Because this course is held online, companies pay a course fee that allows an unlimited number of employees to participate as well as access to course videos for six months. Virtual SEA also provides Spanish translation for speaker presentations as well as coursework and slide decks.
In-person SEA is held at Purdue University and developed specifically for managers of egg companies and those in similar positions looking for a deeper dive into egg quality and food safety as well as specific table-top exercises, and enhanced, in-person networking opportunities with industry, academia and regulatory agencies.
The 2023 in-person SEA is scheduled for September 26-28, and registration will open in early July. For more information, please visit www.shelleggacademy.org or email [email protected].
