FarmIQ is a new agricultural training provider updated and relaunched in 2021 that marries industry leading expertise with a convenient, user-led format. While continually developing skills and knowledge is crucial for farmers to help them navigate the ever-changing industry, FarmIQ recognises that different circumstances demand different approaches. For this reason, online and face-to-face courses are available as part of the service. Online courses are delivered via an easy to navigate web platform that is accessible on multiple devices. The wide range of online courses are designed to suit all farm types and species, led by vets, consultants, and specialists, addressing all areas of the farm business, from animal health and welfare to recruitment and environmental management. Face-to-face courses, led by experienced trainers, are also available at training venues across the UK. All courses are available to purchase through the online payment facility and once signed up complete, the user has access to the course and material for 12 months. Upon completion of all courses, certificates are provided for download, which can be used as evidence of training for schemes such as Red Tractor farm assurance.
