Continuing Education Credits
The assignment of credits for Delaware Agriculture Week sessions is determined by specific criteria and a review of each state’s Department of Agriculture and/or state laws and initiatives. Therefore, neighboring states may employ different values and classifications for the assigned credits. The Delaware Agriculture Week planning committee does not determine credit value or category. Credits are updated periodically as states return their agenda assessments.
