All SC Confined Animal Facility Growers are required by State Regulation R.61-43 to attend the Confined Animal Manure Manager (CAMM) certification training provided by Clemson Extension, USDA-NRCS, and SCDHEC. They are then required to obtain 10 hours of recertification credit each 5 years. These recertification credits are offered around the State on a variety of topics.
The CAMM program team worked diligently to offer live, on-line Zoom recertification trainings beginning in the summer of 2020. Since that time the team has offered more than 30 on-line recertification trainings for CAMM- certified growers. The intent is not to replace in-person trainings, but to offer another option for growers to attend the trainings.
Approximately 20% of CAMM-certified growers have attended one or more on-line trainings during the current 5 year period, which ends June 30, 2025.
