This certificate is a shorter option of Spokane Community College's Agriculture Technology associate's degree. Instead of 6 quarters and 90 credits, the certificate is three quarters and 47 credits.
Agriculture in today’s modern world requires more than farming know-how; it depends on the use of sophisticated technologies. In this program, you’ll learn both the science behind farming and how to work with the latest technologies in agriculture. The program blends courses in plant science, soils and pest management, with training in GPS, GIS, mapping, drones and other tools used today in precision agriculture, record keeping, planning, marketing and more. Whether you want to work on a family farm; for an agriculture supply company; or for a local, state or federal agency; this program will provide the skills for a variety of agriculture-related opportunities.
We also have a program for students interested in growing food crops on a small farm or garden. For more on small farm production, visit our small farm production page.
