Summary

This Basis Foundation Award in Agronomy has a strong blend of field based sessions lead by industry specialists and essential underpinning theory.

Aimed at managers and key operators interested in improving their knowledge in crop husbandry and soil management, the course will provide the grounding for a career in Agronomy and will have many benefits for those managing crop based enterprises.
In-field advisers who have kept up to date with all the aspects of modern farming need to be recognised as professional practitioners. Many agronomists do not necessarily have a degree or HND qualification but having attend the 'University of Life' their experience and knowledge acquired through regular 'on the job training' has given them an equivalent knowledge base.
To formally position the wide range of knowledge needed by modern agronomists BASIS has structured the attainment of the BASIS Diploma in Agronomy, with key components already in every-day use as qualification modules.
