CFIA – Information for Seed Graders and Seed Import Conformity Assessors

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has updated the Guide to the Evaluation of Candidate Seed Graders and Seed Import Conformity Assessors (Guide) which is posted to its website.  The purpose of this Guide is to inform candidates of the general structure of the various parts of the evaluations and provide a list of species with which the candidates are expected to be familiar.  It is not intended as a study guide; however, an overview of its structure should help candidates prepare for the evaluations.  The updates bring the document in line with Weed Seeds Order, 2016.
