Registration is open for three grain
operations courses from the Grain Elevator and Processing Society (GEAPS) and
Kansas State University (K-State) Distance Education Program. These onlinecourses run from April 20-May 22, and registration closes Tuesday, April 14.
Courses are open to anyone, even if they are not a GEAPS member or a student
enrolled at K-State.
Another course focuses on managing grain
quality. GEAPS 525: Management of Insect Pests in Stored Grain gives
participants the skills to prevent and manage insect infestations using
practical chemical and nonchemical methods. Lessons chronicle the most common
types of insects associated with stored grain, pest management concepts
including preventive and responsive tactics, and proper use of protectants and
fumigants.
GEAPS 510 is one of six courses required
for the Credential in Grain Operations Management, and GEAPS 525 and GEAPS 545
are both required for Specialist Credentials. More information on the
Credential Program, including the courses required for each Specialist
Credential, is available on the GEAPS website.

education courses is US$640 for GEAPS members and US$815 for non-members. For more
