New date to be announced in 2021 for rescheduled course
The National Egg Products School (NEPS), originally scheduled for September 15-17, 2020, at the University of Georgia, in Athens, has been postponed out of caution, due to the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak and the need for responsible social distancing. The NEPS Executive Board announced the postponement and said the event will be rescheduled to a yet to be determined date in 2021.
“The health and welfare of the participants, as well as the residents of the local community and university hosting the program are our highest priority at this time,” said Elisa Maloberti, director of egg product marketing for the American Egg Board. “Considering the hands-on nature of the instruction at the egg products school, and the fact that the country continues to battle a pandemic, the best decision is postponement.”
