As part of this week’s “Opinion Maker” show of Sarah’s Country, Cath Blake from Dairy Training Limited discusses how the dairy industry had been pushing for a new model of training involving pathways and “credentialisation” that includes both formal and informal training engagement.

She says once everything comes together under RoVE, the food and fibre sector will be the better for it, with the goal being a wider and more accessible range of training and upskilling options for people available across the primary sector throughout their careers.

The idea is to develop a platform that can deliver training throughout a person’s whole career, providing lifelong training options rather than just at the beginning of someone’s working life, with formal training complemented by informal channels like discussion groups and short courses.
