The course took place at the Santa Monica campus of the Università Cattolica in Cremona. Visits were also organized to Cerzoo, the experimental farm of the Università Cattolica, providing opportunities for discussion, knowledge exchange, and networking.

The course offered 72 hours of training to numerous professionals in the agro-livestock sector who participated. The main objective of the course was to train individuals capable of taking on key roles in research and development, as well as in consulting for agro-livestock companies. The course enabled participants to acquire and consolidate skills in the agro-livestock sector, considering a continually evolving field.

Through thematic modules, the instructors addressed the most current challenges in agriculture, providing operators with the appropriate tools to tackle them. At the end of the course, participants acquired advanced skills in physiology, nutrition, and animal welfare; abilities in adapting to climate change and improving the economic and environmental sustainability of agro-livestock companies; and a comprehensive understanding of the main regulatory processes in the sector.

The teaching team included researchers from the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, experts from the Romeo and Enrica Invernizzi Research Center for Sustainable Dairy Production, and the Department of Animal, Nutrition, and Food Sciences.
