About Course

This Higher Technician Diploma (DTS) in Agricultural Farm Management prepares technicians capable of managing modern and sustainable agricultural operations in the African context. The training, designed to address local challenges (climate variability, market access, sustainable intensification), combines knowledge in agronomy, agricultural business management, finance, and marketing. It emphasizes approaches tailored to small and medium-sized African farms and emerging sectors, in order to increase productivity and resilience of production systems.

The training is 100% online and accessible via a secure e-learning platform. Students benefit from interactive videos, virtual classes, collaborative forums, and remote projects. Practical work is conducted in the form of digital simulations, virtual case studies, and online professional projects. Upon completion of the DTS (120 ECTS, 24 months), graduates will be able to design, manage, and optimize an agricultural farm, develop business plans, and mobilize partners and markets, opening up opportunities as an operations technician, agricultural advisor, agricultural project coordinator, or agricultural entrepreneur.
