Agritech University Prep
Feed your household. Build real skills. Graduate with proof—labs, logs, data, and a portfolio that holds up anywhere.
The Promise
(simple, direct)
This program is built for four outcomes:
Food resilience: grow and manage usable food systems.
STEM mastery: biology, chemistry, environmental science, math, and systems thinking.
Portfolio proof: documented labs, logs, and artifacts—auditable and verifiable.
University readiness: a transcript-ready pathway with real-world projects and writing.
We don’t sell “inspiration.” We ship capability—with receipts.
Who this is for
The student who needs income and stability
If you need a path that creates real, usable skill, this is it. You’ll learn how to grow food and run a small system with clean records.
The student who wants to serve a community
You’ll learn how to build small, repeatable microfarm systems that can be taught and deployed responsibly.
The student who wants A&M-level preparation
You’ll build labs, documentation, and portfolio artifacts that map to university expectations: clear writing, data, repeatable methods.
The tech-minded student
You’ll work with real tools: sensors, spreadsheets, basic automation, and documentation systems that make results measurable.
What students actually do (no fluff)
Students run microfarm learning like a real operation:
Plan: crop cycles, constraints, safety, and budget
Build: small systems (containers, beds, indoor seedlings, compost basics)
Measure: water, light, growth, yield, costs, and losses
Document: logs, photos, procedures, and outcomes
Explain: weekly “Mirror Argument Drill” (60–90s evidence-based explanation)
Improve: after-action reviews and iteration
The ARKTIK Ledger method (USDA-credible)
Every student learns “receipts discipline” using a simple proof system:
Scope Log: what we’re doing / not doing
Decision Log: what changed, who decided, why
Change Log: adjustments + impacts
Incident Log: issues, timestamps, resolution
Proof Log: required artifacts and signoffs
Translation: the work is auditable, privacy-first, and repeatable. That’s the posture serious partners respect.
Core learning strands (rigor + clarity)
-
Soil/media, water, sunlight, nutrients, pest prevention, harvest handling, basic food safety.
-
Plant biology, ecosystems, energy flow, resource constraints, climate realities.
-
Basic stats, charts, yield tracking, cost tracking, variance and troubleshooting.
-
Sensors and monitoring, simple automations, documentation workflows, and responsible AI usage (bounded, proof-first).
-
Professional writing, stakeholder summaries, safe documentation, and clean reporting.
Proof-of-work artifacts (what the student leaves with)
Students produce a portfolio that can support:
For families (practical):
Microfarm plan + weekly operating logs
Harvest/yield record
Budget + cost-per-output tracking
Troubleshooting journal
For universities (academic):
Lab-style reports with data tables and graphs
Research summary briefs (plain language + technical version)
A documented capstone project
For employers/tech paths:
SOPs, checklists, QC gates
Sensor/data snapshots + analysis notes
A “job-ready packet” describing skills with evidence
Start Options
Parent-Led
(Start Monday)
Agritech packs + weekly rhythm + receipts templates.
Higher-Touch
(Start process by Thursday for Monday start)
Fit-check + registration + cohort placement.
Homeroom Cohort
(up to 10 students per grade)
Same peers daily. Professional norms, etiquette, and critical thinking.
Partner lane
If you’re a partner or agency, you’re not buying “classes.” You’re backing capability development with documentation.
Partner outcomes:
workforce-ready documentation posture
measurable proof-of-learning artifacts
clean privacy-first reporting
