Annual Exam

Our annual Canola Watch exam is for Certified Crop Advisors (CCA), Certified Crop Science Consultants (CCSC) and anyone eager to test and enhance their agronomy skills. The exam is divided into sections, covering topics such as soil and water, diseases, weeds and insects, and the latest research.

You can customize your exam to meet specific credit requirements. Upon successful completion of each section, we’ll submit your earned credits, along with your name and program ID number, directly to CCA or CCSC administrators.
