Take a trip to any grocery store or supermarket, and you will see almost entire aisles dedicated to extruded products like cereals, snacks, pastas, and texturized vegetable proteins. These products account for billions of dollars in annual sales worldwide.

Whether extruded products are already a strong component of your business or you are expanding into this food category, The Food Processing Center’s Extrusion Workshop can help. The Extrusion Workshop is an introductory, hands-on workshop combining extrusion theory and techniques with pilot plant exercises emphasizing real-world product development in a variety of food categories. The workshop combines lectures and pilot plant demonstrations from both industry and faculty experts.

The fee for this 3-day workshop, which includes lunch and break refreshments each day and a workshop notebook, is $1400 per person. Nebraska companies may be eligible for funding assistance through Nebraska Workforce Development.

Registration ends June 1, 2019.
