The FCBA Bee School is designed to provide you, through presentations, demonstrations, mentors, class instruction and practical experience, the skills and knowledge you will need to become a certified beekeeper.  

Classes will be made up of an online platform with a self-directed asynchronous curriculum with some in person review and Q&A, along with some hands-on in the bee yard and some in person equipment demonstrations.

Students will be given the opportunity to have a mentor who can assist them.  As mentioned above, classes will be a combination of in person and virtual classes and will culminate with a practical hands on examination of your new beekeeping skills.

There will be an opportunity to take the NCSBA Certified Beekeeping Written Exam at the end of the courses.

A good reference guide to the material that we will be teaching from can be found in the following book which you can purchase here on Amazon if you so choose.
