BOURGAULT ONLINE CUSTOMER CLINIC

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our scheduled seeding clinic (in conjunction with Bourgault Industries) needed to be cancelled.

As an alternative to the customer clinic, Bourgault Industries created an online “virtual” Customer Clinic, which consists of a vast selection of training materials to assist you in preparing yourself for the upcoming seeding season. This information can be accessed through the customer service portal of the Bourgault website. These resources offer a great self-learning opportunity for all customers who will not have the opportunity to attend a clinic this spring. It is also an excellent refresher for all customers. This online tutorial covers most of the planned material. There are other resources as well available such as a Start Up Checklist, Simulated Seeding Guideline, and various instructions and downloads.
