Correspondence Courses

Each year, nabim, the trade association for the UK flour milling industry, runs 7 modular courses to provide millers with an essential understanding and underpinning knowledge of the milling industry. The courses are studied by hundreds of students around the world and lead to the nabim Advanced Certificate in Flour Milling.

The modules may be taken in any order or combination, so providing a flexible training package.

For each module, students are allocated an individual tutor, to whom they submit four pieces of work during the course year; the tutors return this work marked and with further guidance. The tutors are all experienced in the operation and management of flour mills, providing students with expert assistance in their training.

At the end of the one year course, in May, students take written examinations (please see below for the 2012 timetable).
