Since the launch in May, nearly 250 farmers across the UK have signed up for the Institute for Agriculture and Horticulture’s (TIAH) new scheme which offers tailored advice and tools to support career development.
TIAH is the new professional body helping farmers and growers fulfil their potential. The service offers opportunities for farmers at every stage of their career, in terms of helping review skills, plot training options and record CPD progress.
The scheme 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.
According to the chief executive of TIAH, Stephen Jacob, “Since the test version of the online service went live in May, we’ve been pleased to see increasing interest from farmers and growers. We are receiving a wide range of feedback around content and usability which is helping us to develop and refine the service ahead of launching TIAH membership.”
