The Grain Elevator Financing Course is a "virtual classroom" that students can access from anywhere at anytime.  Students set their own schedules and receive training through the use of these resources:

• Interactive lessons are provided on a CD that is accessed via personal computer.
• With each lesson reading and homework assignments are given using the accompanying "The Art of Grain Merchandising" textbook.
• Weekly reviews of the material are done in live on-line classes where students can participate in discussions and Q & A sessions.
• Additional training aids are provided via the course website.
• Examinations are given periodically throughout the course to evaluate student's understanding of the materials and reviewed with the instructor in private one-on-one consultations.
