  Who should take the course?  
     

The Grain Merchant Certification is for anyone interested in learning the specialized skills of basis trading as it applies to the grain business.
 

The GMC Course was very effective.  I had only been doing this for about one  year when I took the course and it greatly improved my knowledge of grain merchandising.

It provides a strong foundation in the fundamental skills and routines of grain merchandising and is an excellent training tool for new merchants to learn both the concepts and practical application of basis trading in a grain operation.
 
The course is especially designed to help experienced merchants move their skills to the next level.  It takes you beyond just hedging grain to understanding basis values and how to actively seek out opportunities in different market environments.

Successful basis traders recognize that the market is constantly changing and continued education is essential to keeping their skills at peak performance.

 


I’ve been merchandising for a long time and I thought the course was great!  I can’t think of anyone in the grain business it wouldn’t help.

For business owners, it is a valuable exercise to evaluate the overall merchandising practices and routines of their business.
   


It was time well spent learning more about basis trading.  Perhaps the greatest benefit to me was thinking about what my business needs to do to execute the principals I learned.
