Accepting Applications for Leadership Training

The National Institute for Animal Agriculture is accepting nominations for the fourth Cohort of the Advanced Training for Animal Agriculture Leaders.  Nominations are due November 17th.  The 16-month leadership program blends in-person and virtual working sessions to focus on four areas of development: critical thinking, leadership development, connecting and relating skills, and operational excellence.  Members of the program work together on applied-learning projects that will incorporate interest in animal agriculture.

“It’s been a true gift to learn from and collaborate with the other community groups, organizations, and associations represented within this leadership cohort,” said Sarah Coleman, Kentucky Horse Council and member of Cohort 3. “To learn about so many things in the agriculture space is incredible and it’s reassuring that so many of us are working to ensure that agriculture is sustainable in every facet of the word.”
