Sheep, Beef, Deer and Wool farming

The Food and Fibre Centre of Vocational Excellence is undertaking research into residential/group training. We will use this research to explore best practice and suitable models for pre-employment training. 

We will also explore with providers how we cater for learners that want to interact and have a face-face learning environment, when they are geographically dispersed. 

Latest Update:

As we have built up our workforce development plans, we can see that there are common opportunities across multiple industries relating to delivery and assessment, provision of learning and research. To give this issue more focus and to systematically address any sector-wide issues we have combined our work in this area into a single programme of work.

Our industry teams will be closely involved in this work, and we will make sure that any unique issues or solutions for Sheep, Beef, Deer and Wool continue to be visible and prioritised.
