threat to poultry populations for many years, and is now gaining prominance
as a possible public health threat. The
National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP) is a branch of the USDA that,

CD and Video guide for these laboratories on the most up to date diagnostic
test procedures for Avian Influenza. This CD contains over 30 minutes of video,

U.S. Poultry and Egg Association. The commercial poultry industry
is big business worldwide. The leading association in the this industry
is the USP&E based in Atlanta, Georgia, and they provide immense service
to their members and the poultry industry at large by providing comprehensive
training programs and funding research projects in poultry health science.
In the past, Paradigm media has also produced a series of training videos for poultry health professionals in the laboratory, and in the field, on issues related to salmonella organisms that were funded and distributed by the U.S. Poultry and Egg Association.
Most recently, we completed major CD-ROM for the USP&E which is being distributed internationally (7,000 copies in Canada alone). Produced in collaboration with Dr. Jean-Pierre Vaillancourt of North Carolina State University, and many poultry health science experts from around the country, this program is a comprehensive resource for commercial poultry producers on poultry disease prevention through biosecurity and sanitation.
The CD contains 30 minutes of video segments as background for the hundreds of pages of support documents. In addition, an self-grading quiz is available as a part of the educational component, along with a custom programmed, interactive "scenario generator" which allows users to simulate actual conditions in a poultry facility and predict the relative disease risk based on user input. To order a free copy, please go to the U.S. Poultry and Egg Association website.
Shooting was accomplished in North Carolina, Georgia and California.
