## Online Dairy Training & Career Acceleration

The purpose of the Online Dairy Foods Manufacturing Certificate is to provide the skills and expertise you need to be in demand and command a higher salary.  

This program was specifically designed by working closely with the dairy industry to help you gain the essential framework for career growth and professional development. 

 The knowledge gained from the dairy certificate tracks and modules will help you with the essentials of:

- operations
- manufacturing
- quality
- supply chain
- technical and scientific understanding
- regulatory and safety

##### Thoughtfully Designed For Dairy Manufacturing Careers

The modules and certificates are designed to train and upskill:

- Plant personnel new to dairy manufacturing with limited or no prior education in the dairy or food industry
- Existing personnel aspiring to advance in the company by preparing themselves for work on the food quality team or food safety team
- Persons with supervisory skills or roles can deepen dairy-related technical and scientific knowledge to their skillset and increase career mobility

Because of the close connection to industry, this program is also helpful if you're in the regulatory space or in sales on the supplier side.

##### Learning Options

 The full certificates (Essentials and Advanced Certificates in Dairy Manufacturing) provide an in-depth exploration of core topics related to dairy manufacturing. They are ideal for new hires with limited or no prior dairy or food industry education, as well as those looking to brush up on foundational knowledge.

 Micro Certificates and individual modules focus on specific specialties in dairy manufacturing, and are ideal for existing personnel seeking career advancement, supervisors, and others looking to deepen their dairy-related technical and scientific knowledge.

 Each on-demand module is approximately 1 – 2 hours in length. 

Bulk enrollments are also easily accepted.

*You will have access to the module(s) for one year from the registration date.*

#### Why OSU is a big deal

Oregon State University's dairy foods program has been teaching students for over 100 years.

 Now, in terms of its programs, research, and outreach,  it's considered one of the largest educational dairy programs in the world (estimated to be the fifth biggest in the U.S.).

 And with 100 years of history, OSU's dairy program has established connections and partnerships with prominent companies in dairy manufacturing.

In fact, OSU alumni hold leadership positions in dairy companies nationally.

![OSU Dairy Program](https://workspace.oregonstate.edu/hs-fs/hubfs/OSU%20Dairy%20Program.png?width=643&height=420&name=OSU%20Dairy%20Program.png)

As a result, OSU's dairy program has established a great feedback loop within the industry and stakeholders, and this helps ensure the program continues to be relevant and top-notch and this is one of the most respected certifications in the dairy industry.

## Dairy Manufacturing Essentials Certificate
