[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1301043, member: 16453"] I think very few people would be competent enough to go out and be a " New AI Tech" after completing a basic inseminators course, that is why I questioned the issueing of the certification. I think that certificate should be kept in a drawer until you have done enough to feel confident in your own skills before inflicting yourself on the general public. I don't think AI schools are meant to roll out inseminators at the end of the class, they are designed to introduce you to the principals of AI with a few successfull inseminations under your belt, under supervision and with enough knowledge to go home and start gaining experience in your own herd. The big, big majority will stop there and only do their own. Rising Creek, you are no different to any one else having completed a course, I am not suggesting that what you have achieved is any different to anyone else, you just have to be patient. Set up as many of your own as possible to do and when you are getting some of those to stick try and interest neighbours. Even buying 1 old cow to keep in the yards and go down each evening and pass a rod in her, when you are tired of her sell her and buy another one. Get genital tracts from the slaughterhouse and pass the rod blindfolded. If you are really serious about gaining experience, you will find ways. Try Pm'ing Cow Pollinater to get some tips, he is self taught and built up a big insemination run. Ken [/QUOTE]
