COURSES WE DELIVER
Planning, marketing, managing finances & people is all part of running a successful farm / rural business but often these skills are lacking in owner’s, family members and workers. Many farms ‘sub’ out this work / skills to costly consultants or simply DO NOT plan their next steps. This approach is littered with financial uncertainty and in truth will no longer work for even the smallest of holdings as the agricultural world is moving forward and only those who skilfully plan ahead will succeed. So why not let us help you get the skills you need to do this yourself?
WE HAVE SHORT COURSES IN

WHERE WE DELIVER
We appreciate not everyone can just ‘up sticks’ and go on a course, it’s not always practical especially when you run a busy farm / rural business and someone has to be there.
Also some family members are carers, have children and other circumstances that can prevent them from leaving the farm / rural business to access support / skills offered in traditional settings, which is why we have a flexible delivery approach and can deliver our courses on site at your farm or rural business at convenient times and on a 1-2-1 basis.
