NMC Training Certificate Program

Welcome to NMC’s Training Certificate Program! A dynamic and growing learning platform that serves to advance global milk quality through accessible dairy health education. We invite you to join us as we continue to grow this exciting initiative in 2026 and beyond.

Register today for access to our first Curriculum – Teat Scoring Training and Proficiency. (Available in both English and Spanish.)

By subscribing to this curriculum, you’ll have immediate access to:
• Module #1 – Teat-end Hyperkeratosis
• Module #2 – Teat Skin Condition
• Module #3 – Teat Skin Color Scoring
• Module #4 – Additional Teat Observations (Spanish translation to come in Feb. 2026)

All content under this curriculum is designed to educate the trainee on how to identify the teat conditions specific to each module, associated risks/mitigation, and how to quantify the proliferation and severity of teat health issues within the herd. Each module ends with a quiz on which the trainee must achieve a score of 85% or higher to pass. Upon passing, a signed certificate of completion will be issued to the user by the NMC which is valid for one year. However, the training can be accessed for reference/re-take at any time with a paid subscription.
