New Alpaca Webinar Series Offered
We are proud and excited to be teaming up with Mr. Mike Safely from Northwest Alpacas to offer live educational seminars. You call get all the details by going to www.alpacas.com. Via A.H.A. Productions, we will be doing the technical piece of these seminars.
Northwest Alpacas is implementing a new educational series to be delivered over the internet. These live on-line seminars, called "webinars" cover various subjects relating to alpacas and the alpaca industry. This format provides a convenient means to extend alpaca knowledge. It allows anyone with a high-speed internet connection to participate in training that is conducted by experts and reflects the most up-to-date information available.
A series of 10 webinar subjects will be presented over a 12-week period starting in February. The entire series will be repeated again beginning in May. This allows flexibility in choosing dates and also permits a chance to "make-up" a class that was missed.
The list of webinars includes:
Getting Started
Selecting your first Huacaya
Alpaca Taxes
Barns and Fences
Alpaca breeding genetics (Advanced)
Marketing - The Ideal Alpaca Community
Neo-Natal Clinic (Advanced)
The Spin on Alpaca Fiber
Herdsire Selection
Ask The Expert
Webinars are offered on an individual basis or as a complete group that includes all 10. Individual webinars are offered at $35, except for the Advanced ones, which are $75. The "Ask The Expert" webinar is only available as part of the 10-webinar package. This package is $250 and represents more than a 42% savings relative to the individual prices.
Go directly to www.alpacas.com to sign up.
From Northwest Alpacas: A special note of thanks goes to Aussie Hills Alpacas without whose cooperation and technical support these webinars would not be possible.
