Early access to new skills service

A new online skills and learning service is being made available to growers and livestock producers who want to further their careers.

The Institute for Agriculture and Horticulture (TIAH) has opened up free access to the test version of the online platform ahead of its upcoming launch to farmers and other industry members later this year.

Designed to support sector workers in fulfilling their potential, TIAH’s service will connect users with training and learning opportunities tailored to their individual sector, role, and skill level.

The online service will locate the best development opportunities for individuals at every stage in their career, helping them review their skills, plot their training journeys, and record achievements along the way.   

TIAH is inviting everyone working in farming and growing to road test the beta version of the service for free in return for user feedback. This will allow TIAH to add improvements and complete the next stage of development of the service.

The institute said it hoped as many people as possible would take up the opportunity to fast-track their professional development while helping the organisation deliver the best possible service to future users.

The online service also offers a range of information about careers in farming and growing to help those already working in the industry, as well as those who would like to.
