A single disease outbreak, residue finding or failed inspection can close an export market or shut a farm. Producers and regulators handling fish, poultry and livestock need governance that works on the ground, not only on paper. Over five days you build a compliance system covering licensing and permits, farm biosecurity, veterinary medicine and antimicrobial stewardship, animal welfare, feed safety, effluent and manure management, and traceability. Sessions introduce HACCP, GlobalG.A.P. and WOAH standards, internal audit methods, corrective action tracking and board-level oversight of farm risk.
The programme is written for farm and hatchery managers, aquaculture operators, veterinary officers, quality and compliance managers, county and national inspectors, cooperative leaders and agribusiness investors. It is offered in classroom format across 18 cities, online, or in-house at your own sites. Participants complete audit checklists and risk registers on realistic farm files, and each person receives a CPD-accredited certificate. When you return to work you can map your legal obligations, run a mock inspection, close gaps with a costed action plan, and present a clear compliance picture to owners, lenders and buyers.
Animal production sits at the crossroads of public health, trade and environmental protection. Buyers ask for proof of traceability and residue control, lenders ask about disease risk, and regulators expect licensed premises, accurate records and responsible use of veterinary medicines. Enterprises that treat compliance as an afterthought find out about their gaps during an outbreak or an export rejection, when fixing them is most expensive.
This course walks participants through a complete governance system for aquaculture, poultry and livestock enterprises. It starts by mapping the regulatory landscape and assigning clear responsibilities, then turns to the operational controls that regulators and auditors look for: biosecurity zoning, health plans, medicine registers, withdrawal periods, welfare standards, feed and water quality, waste handling and product traceability. Later sessions cover internal audit, non-conformance handling, incident response and reporting to management.
Teaching combines short technical briefings with practical audit work on sample farm records, hatchery and pond scenarios, and simulated inspector visits. Each participant ends with a legal register, an inspection checklist and a corrective action plan fitted to their own operation.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
