This program was rescheduled from March 30th.
This workshop is for employees, supervisors or managers whose first language is Spanish and whose job entails using DC305 on a daily basis. The objective is for attendees to improve their understanding of the "language" of DC305 as well as the whys behind consistent data entry. Since DC305 is specific to each farm, the workshop will focus on general application and deeper understanding of how data is used on dairy farms.
After registration, you will receive a confirmation email with a zoom link for the meeting.
Este taller es para empleados, supervisores o gerentes cuyo primer idioma es el español y cuyo trabajo implica el uso diario de DC305 (o Dairy Comp). El objetivo es que los asistentes mejoren su comprensión del "lenguaje" de DC305, así como los porqués detrás de la entrada de datos consistente. Dado que DC305 es un poco diferente y único para cada rancho, el taller se centrará en la aplicación general y una comprensión más profunda de cómo se utilizan los datos en los ranchos lecheros.
Después de la registración, recibirás un vinculo de Zoom a acceder la reunión.
