About Us
Since 1909 The Graham School for Cattlemen has provided valuable continuing education in breeding and herd management to beef and dairy cattlemen. Students from around the globe have learned and perfected their management skills in artificial insemination, pregnancy testing, calf delivery, fertility testing, nutrition and herd health, just to name a few. Graham School students represent a cross-section of the cattle industry ranging from licensed veterinarians, seedstock producers, commercial producers, and feedlot employees.
Each Graham School session consists of five days of intense classroom and "hands on" training in actual on-the-farm conditions. whether a student is new to the cattle business or a seasoned professional, the Graham School offers a diverse curriculum relevant in today's competitive and economically sensitive ranching climate
