Training at Premier Select Sires

The team of reproductive specialists at Premier Select Sires has the expertise and experience to train you to effectively breed your own cattle in a short period of time. Trainers are located throughout our sales area, offering artificial insemination schools at a convenient location and time for you.

At the end of the two-day training, students will learn the necessary skills to inseminate their own herd with industry-leading Select Sires semen. This can be a cost effective investment in your farm’s reproductive success.

Training classes will be posted on this page as they are scheduled—check back frequently to find classes near you! You may sign up and pay online. Details for individual courses are available by clicking on the listings below.

Virtual A.I. Training Classes for Ag Educators

Specifically designed for ag educators, a virtual A.I. training course will train attendees in the anatomy and physiology of artificial insemination, as well as the products and programs that are part of any A.I. program’s success! A Premier A.I. Trainer will walk attendees through the classroom portion of the training that is taught to certify students of all ages.

Why sign up? This is a great way for ag teachers to not only refresh their own knowledge of A.I., but also to learn about our training program for students who could benefit from learning A.I. or who have shown interest in working with a genetics company. Following the class, there will be an opportunity for attendees or their students to enroll in an in-person, on-farm training with hands-on practice.

The course is $75, and includes two hours of virtual training, a digital copy of the Premier Select Sires A.I. Manual (+$30 if you’d like a printed copy), and access to the Premier student-only A.I. portal. Sign-up and payment are due prior to the class.

Knowledge is power—join us in one of our elite Premier training programs!
