Technical assistance and training available to Vermont’s composters

Vermont Business Magazine Registration is now open for the Vermont Compost Operator Certification Training. Due to the continued challenge of planning large in-person gatherings, we will again be offering a fully remote version of the Vermont Compost Operator Certification Training in winter 2022.

Hosted by Compost Technical Services, and presented by the VT Agency of Natural Resources (ANR), this workshop will provide participants with a Compost Operator Certificate, which meets the requirements of ANR for small, medium and large compost facility site operators.

Current or future compost site operators will be certified to manage composting facilities handling food scraps or animal mortalities in Vermont. The training is a combination of pre-recorded presentations, review tests, and live webinars.

The course is limited to Vermont residents and site operators working in the state and costs $30.

In addition to the training, consulting services are available to eligible food scrap composters on an ongoing basis. For more information, go to: www.the131school.com or email [email protected]
