Overview
With the Agricultural Professional Practice course from Scotland's Rural College (SRUC) you'll also gain the ability to appraise research information and apply it to sustainable agricultural practice.
Aimed at people interested in a career in the land-based industries in a professional capacity, it aims to provide the technical and management skills required in modern agricultural professional practice, along with a knowledge and understanding of how policy decisions impact the land-based sector.
Careers
In order to develop your own area of expertise, there are a number of elective modules in business, crop or livestock production.
Many positions in the land-based industries require professional qualifications, so there is also potential within the course to study FACTS, BASIS or AMTRA (additional fee and assessment required).
The Institute of Agricultural Management (IAgrM) considers this course as suitable evidence of CPD if you're pursuing ‘Professional Agriculturalist’ status.
