What if you could assign ranch tasks to someone else and knew that everything would be done right?
Maybe you….
Want to spend more time on management jobs instead of routine ranching tasks.
Spend hours on the phone troubleshooting every problem with your hired help.
Haven’t left the ranch in years because nobody can do your job like you can.
Are hesitant to hire someone because training them is exhausting and often incomprehensive.
What if I told you…
There are downloadable resources for your employee to reference while on the job.
You CAN leave the ranch tasks in the hands of someone else.
There is a course that your hired person can take that is SPECIFIC to ranching.
I get it, your ranch is your life.
Mine too!
We’ve been called home from so many holidays to deal with inconsistent water, cows that are out, power outages, you name it, we’ve been bothered with it.
It doesn’t have to be this way!
With the right education, your employees will have the skills and resources to fix it themselves and leave you to your other work.
As a matter of fact, we were able to go on a hot holiday for the first time this winter. Not only that, but our return was delayed by 4 days and our employee handled everything perfectly.
When we got home, everything was taken care of and healthy.
This wasn’t to say that things didn’t go wrong while we were gone. In fact, it was -45 the entire week, but our employee knew what to do when things froze and the power went out.
The Ranch Ready Certificate Includes:
Trouble shooting water systems
Extreme weather conditions
Livestock handling
Transportation procedures
How to prioritize work
Safety Procedures
and more!
Who’s Teaching This Course?
Hi there! We're Erin and Steve McKnight.
Throughout our journey of working with various employees, we've noticed that training can be quite a task – it's often those little things we take for granted that need the most attention. You know, like the right way to open a gate or how to properly pound in staples.
And then there is safety – it's a big deal for us. After an incident involving a power line and a call from Saskatchewan Occupational Health, it hit us: we needed a better, more accountable way to train our team in safety procedures and to verify that they've learned it.
That's why we've taken our training program online. It's a game-changer! Now, when someone starts with us, we know they've got the essential skills down pat. It's been a relief not sweating the small stuff, and it's made tackling the big stuff so much more manageable.
