We deliver poultry apprenticeships and training courses that support skills development, compliance, and career progression across the production cycle. Training will be tailored specifically to the type of farm or hatchery you are working on, such as egg production farm, rearing farm, breeding farm or growing farm – and they may be chicken, turkey or duck sites.
Alongside this, we offer a range of business-focused apprenticeships, including administration and management, to help strengthen your wider operations.
Whether you’re upskilling new starters or developing existing team members, our flexible training solutions are built around the needs of your business. With funding options available, investing in your workforce has never been easier.
