Pig, Poultry and other livestock farming
The uptake of qualifications in the Poultry, Pigs and Other Livestock industry is low when compared to other industries. We will undertake research to identify what factors might impact on this and if or how employers and employees can be supported to achieve qualifications. This research will underpin our future actions on ensuring relevant qualifications, supported by quality, suitable delivery.
Key steps:
- Determine whether uptake is low or reasonable considering the size of the workforce.
- Identify why people in the industry may not enroll in qualifications.
Latest progress:
We have engaged with industry and providers to identify why people in the industry may not enroll in qualifications (completed March 2024).
We are currently working to determine whether uptake is low or reasonable considering the size of the workforce (due for completion end of May 2024).
