E-SERIES COURSES:

The UC Davis Seed Biotechnology Center created the Plant Breeding Academy E-Series online courses as a response to a high demand for industry professional education courses even during the pandemic of 2020-2021. The first round of E-Series courses were such a success that we decided to continue to offer these online courses to help further educate professionals in our industry. 

These courses utilize an online format with the proven teaching models of the globally popular Plant Breeding Academy in-person courses, focusing on practical application and interaction with experienced instructors.
