Courses/Bee Schools

Courses/Bee Schools

The NCSBA offers many opportunities to improve your beekeeping skills.

Every year, NCSBA chapters conduct bee schools to help new beekeepers get on the right foot. The schools are varied, with prices ranging between free and $150, one day to four months, and vary in their approach. Check around your location for the best fit.

Chapter Bee School Courses

If a chapter is not listed, the course may already have begun, no courses are being offered in that chapter, or that chapter has chosen not to be listed on the NCSBA web site. However, courses which have already begun are still listed on the calendar. If the date for a school has already past, you may want to contact the chapter directly to see when their next scheduled class will be or if you can join in on a course already started.
