Introducing our first Lion Code accredited biosecurity course for egg producers

Biosecurity in the egg sector is always improving and evolving. To keep it as a strong line of defence against disease, it’s important that everyone on farm understands not just what to do, but why it matters. Helping people connect with the reasons behind the protocols is key to making practical biosecurity work day-to-day.

Put simply, it’s about moving biosecurity beyond a checklist and into something that becomes part of everyday behaviour. It’s those consistent, day-to-day actions that really make the difference when it comes to reducing risk on farm.

That’s why we’re really pleased to introduce our first Lion Code–specific biosecurity e-learning course, created especially for egg producers.

Why consistent biosecurity training matters

Amy Davies, Biosecurity Advisor and Training Manager at Livetec, explains:


“We’re really pleased to be able to offer our first Lion Code accredited course. We’ve worked closely with industry to make sure the content meets the high standards expected for biosecurity and hygiene, while also bringing in what we’ve learned from real disease situations on the ground.

Training plays a huge role on farm. When staff understand the consequences, not just in theory, but through real experiences, it helps those behaviours really stick.

Our aim is to give learners the most practical and valuable training we can. It’s also delivered through our e-learning platform, giving people the flexibility to learn at their own pace.”

Built specifically for Lion Code compliance

Designed specifically around Lion Code biosecurity requirements for egg production, the course focuses on real, every day on-farm scenarios - helping learners understand why actions matter, not just what the rules say.

The course supports producers by:

    • Reinforcing consistent biosecurity behaviours across teams
    • Reducing risk linked to human error
    • Providing clear, auditable training records
    • Making training accessible for busy farm environments

Learners can complete the course online, at their own pace, making it suitable for both new starters and experienced staff needing a refresher.

Why choose Livetec as your training provider?

At Livetec, training is never theoretical.

Our courses are shaped by years of hands-on experience working alongside producers - supporting planning, prevention and response across the poultry sector. We understand the real pressures on farm, the realities of staffing, and the importance of practical guidance that people can apply immediately.

This course has been developed by specialists who work daily with egg producers, ensuring it reflects:

    • UK production systems
    • Lion Code expectations
    • Real-world biosecurity challenges

The result is training that supports compliance and strengthens biosecurity culture on farm.

“Effective biosecurity training isn’t about overwhelming people with rules - it’s about helping them understand why their actions matter. This course is designed to build confidence and consistency, not just knowledge.” Amy adds.
