A free, comprehensive “soup-to-nuts” training program designed to cover everything from knots to boating safety to food safety to marketing is now available online. These video training modules were designed to teach entry-level farm workers the skills and knowledge they need to be successful, and were originally paired with a hands-on, paid internship program offered by the Education Exchange in Rhode Island. (You can read all about it in our June 2022 newsletter).

You can access the modules in two ways: as a certificate program, which requires going through the modules in order and taking a test before being able to access the next module; or just jumping around and selecting any modules in any order without receiving a certificate.

To access the videos, visit the Education Exchange teachables website. You will be asked to sign up for a free teachables account, or to log in to teachables if you already have an account. Once you are logged in, click on the  widget for the certificate program or non-certificate resource page options.
