The below list gives an idea as to the activities that would be available to a fellow of the scheme. The activities have been kindly pledged by our supporting companies.
Within the two year Fellowship program the Fellow can participate in the following activities:
- “Technical Meetings” covering topics such as crop protection, resources, and productivity
- Attendance on a Study Tour (such as those organised by IPPS and Grower Associations)
- Fellows will be given invitations to attend technical/strategic committees of the participating trade bodies as a guest
- A series of the visits whereby Fellows host the members of their cohort at their place of employment
- Participation in a series of webinars with key industry leaders
Profiles of the Fellows will be published in trade media to promote their achievements made throughout the scheme.
