Students can register for the wheat and maize milling technology courses. As this is a technology course, assignments and examinations will contain questions requiring practical experience/exposure in the wheat and maize industry.
General Information
This means students can sign up for courses that will teach them about the technology of milling wheat and maize. This is not just a theory course – they will also need practical experience or exposure to the industry in order to answer questions on assignments and exams.
All students have to start at module 1 and progress from there. The wheat and maize courses are separate technology courses.
The wheat and maize milling technology courses are divided into modules or sections of the course material. It’s important to start at Module 1 and work through the course in order. Students can’t skip ahead to a later module without completing the earlier ones first.
A Certificate of Completion from SAGMA for the wheat and maize courses in milling technology will be issued to students after completion of these courses.
Some companies require their millers to complete both the Maize and Wheat Technology courses. In such cases, the student will complete Modules 6 – 8 once, as the course content for the Maize/Wheat modules is identical.
